    Until Monday, there is the Pacific National Exhibition. Basically a big fair, with plenty of things to keep a body amused. RCMP Musical Ride. Superdogs. Chris Isaak on Saturday. A local country trio - brother and two sisters - called The Higgins on Sunday. Celtic Legends Irish dance troop. Best roller coaster on the planet. LINK.

    Weather is seasonable - evenings call for a light jacket.

    What do you like to do, Lily?

    Already back.......................
    A week is so short but i did have a good time seeing my sister angain and 2 of my uncles.
    This was the second time I was in Canada pushing my mom around in a wheelchair.
    She twisted her knee getting out of the airplaine now we,re hoping it will heel proper.
    The topping of the cake was my brother in law just before we left, he felt excluded because we talked too much Dutch but it wasn,t personal....................
    I tried to have conversations with him but he was too busy with his computer to talk to me.
    And just before we left there was a message that my mom,s youngest brother was in hospital, we couldn,t go up there cause he lives on the Island, fingers crossed he will recover ,docters don,t know yet what,s the matter with him.
    At least I,ve got a very nice pic with him together.

    Oohh , forgot to tell what I did, we,ve been to the mall and quiltstores (why not)
    Had a nice walk in West Vancouver along the Burrard Inlet, went the next day to Stanleypark and went to Deep Cove.
    Lucky for me they had labourday and my sis took 2 more days off, so we had some time to spend.
    Cant, get used being on a balcony( sis lives on the 5th floor) I love to walk in my garden in the early morning with my coffee and smoke.
    It took almost the whole week to get used to Canadian time and now it,s still in my system, it,s almost 2 AM now
