We're home from Norwich, CT for three minutes before we fly out tomorrow to Vancouver. I've been looking forward to this last wedding stop on the tour not only because of the family we'll see, but because it's my old hometown. We'll be busy, but it will be easy. No directions to look up, no worries about where to eat or stay, just kickin' back in a city where we can walk everywhere and where we (mostly) know where everything is. Familiar haunts, good Canadian beer and the best sushi, I can't ask for much more.

it's fun to go on "vacation" to an old hometown. I love that familiar feeling, but it's still like being on vacation - without most of the worries!

Just in time for the jazz festival. There's free jazz at Granville Island on Canada Day (Sunday). I'll be there knitting!
The weather's iffy right now but I'll keep my fingers crossed that it's dry for the wedding.

Have fun in Vancouver! Can't wait to hear about your many adventures when you actually get home for more than 48 hours.

Are you here over the weekend? I think it's supposed to get warm and sunny (at last) by Sunday.

I love Vancouver! In fact, we're moving back there this weekend. I'm looking forward to revisiting all my old haunts. We've been in Toronto for the past couple of years and I'm telling you, it doesn't hold a candle to Van. I miss west coast beer. What are your favourite spots for a pint?

This seems unbelievable, but Vancouver is the only place in Canada I've been. I was there in the spring several years ago for a conference, and couldn't get over how beautiful it was.
