Here it is Monday in sunny hot Vancouver. We are staying at the Best Western Hotel in Coquitlam...er Little Korea really...we are surrounded by Korean stores, signs, etc. Last night we went over to Denise and Stan's house for dinner. Roast pork and cream corn mmmmmmm. It was good. Afterwards, we played some games. They have two dogs and four cats...and they all get along. strange 'cause I did not think that Denise liked dogs or cats, but I guess they came with Stan so.... They live in a quaint little house in Surrey with a great view of New Westminster across the river.
Today we went over to Granville island and did some window shopping...so many stores with all the same stuff.... and so expensive. This evening we are at Margot and Joel's place. They took us out to dinner at Carderos Restaurant. I had a prime rib...Catherine had salmon...we had ribs, oysters, squid (I'm a sucker for squid, ahi tuna (raw)for appys and some wonderful deserts with port and coffee and we are full...real full. We had the best table in the house and all the staff treated us like royalty because they knew Joel (becasue he works there) and Margot and, well, they were just good and real friendly people. Tomorrow we are going over to Lois and Brett's place for a visit and Wednesday we are going to Stanley Park for a picnic with Joel and Margot and Thursday....well, Thursday we are going back home. So sad that we won't be able to get over to Victoria this time...next time. Well, I hope we will get to see Gary and Carol in the fall if they come out.
Anyhow, better go ....keef und boogling'
