Vancouver: Day 1

Jonathan was very excited to see Vancouver, Canada. I think b/c Canadians are really into hockey, and Jonathan is really into hockey, so he's really into Canada.

We were only in Canada for 1 day before our cruise. We bought tickets to one of those hop on/hop off trolleys that take you all over town. I love those cheesy things. It's a great way to orient yourself to a large city. Plus I stink at map reading.

Thankfully, the trolley took us right next to the GM Place, where the Vancouver Canucks hockey teams plays. If they would've won their last playoff series, they would've been playing a home game! Alas, they lost, so there was no playoff hockey for Jonathan. He drowned his sorrows in a Canucks t-shirt and puck purchase.

We're both wearing jeans and warm long sleeve t-shirts and we were BOILING.  The temp was 80 something degrees.  Actually, our entire vacation was pretty warm weather.  I guess we got pretty lucky, b/c every local we talked to made a comment on the unusual weather.  Yee-haw!
