I just returned from a short trip to Vancouver. It is so beautiful there. It was a tad chilly but no rain. I walked about 1km to the course everyday and it was just so refreshing even the morning. The blossoms were in full bloom too so it was gorgeous. I really like Vancouver for their nature loving and planet saving ideas. I loved the smell of the ocean too!
I stayed with Jessica and Dean. It was so nice to catch up with them, it had been a few years since I last saw them in Ottawa. I ate really well while I was there. We had fancy breakfast and lunch at the course and in the evenings we ate out or Dean cooked. Boy was I spoilt! I put on a few pounds. Good thing I did managed to go out for a run one evening.... I ran to Stanley park from Dean and Jessica's which is about 3km away. Didn't go into the park though, I wasn't too sure I would make it back to their place if I tried running in there. 
I saw Sean and Teresa and we played a game of Mahjong. So much fun. I also caught up with Mark Humphries, people I used to work together at BNI, Winnipeg before 2000!
Glad to be home, missed the Kyle and the kids. We talked everyday but I was so busy at the course everyday and there was tons of homework. In a way it was nice not to have the distractions of home and just being able to concentrate.
I look forward to going out to Vancouver again to seeing everyone and enjoying the beautiful city.
