It must be great to visit Vancouver and hit a weather spell like this one. Vancouverites are definitely happier and more friendly with the sunshine, and this is getting ridiculous... I got a hug from an American lady from Kansas City after a city bus ride last night.. ;-) Tralaalaalaalaaa
Yesterday was our rest day, and indeed I was lazy! It was nice enough to sit on my little deck and get some Vitamin D for a spell, until the sun passed behind a building. There is so much going on, it didn't look right to have an empty spot in our calendar, so Michael went and got us two tickets to "Hal Willner's Neil Young Project" which is a big show with many guitars and vocalists singing Neil Young songs. There were a few slow and even wobbly spots but some great moments. Included in the large group of artists were Lou Reed, Ron Sexmith and Elvis Costello. Elvis made the show....I had almost forgotten how much of a fan I am. He's still got it. Good vocals, great guitar.
Today we enter into a new hockey stretch. This evening: Czechoslovakia vs. Latvia. Tomorrow we see a noon game between Norway and Switzerland which could be good. We have a couple of fun friends joining us so we're looking forward to the day.
No photos from yesterday! All my concert photos are too blurry! So here's one from CityCaucus. A sight you don't often see: Stephen Colbert rides a moose in downtown Vancouver!
