I came home yesterday after five days in Vancouver visiting with Michelle & the grand-dog, Zephyr. Wow, It was -27C Sunday afternoon when I flew out of Edmonton hoping for some respite from the cold and snow. Vancouver greeted me with typical rain and atypical below zero temperatures. There was snow on the ground and much more to come over the next few days. Vancouverites were loving the novelty of it all and everyone seemed to be in good spirits, greeting one another, which is not the norm when the weather is the routine!
Michelle & I had fun. She lives in the West-end of Vancouver and we shopped, lunched and went to the Art Gallery, traveling mostly on foot as it was easier to get around walking instead of trying to drive on the ice.
I came home yesterday to... surprise, surprise...-27C! There were cars in the ditch all along the highway in from the airport. Winter in Canada, you gotta love it!! We have to get travelling south with Kingsley ASAP! We are aiming for early January. I will keep you posted on our activities.
P.S. Zephyr is modelling her new raincoat and snood!
