Halfway There

Okay, we're not even close to halfway there, but we are in Vancouver. We maxed out our 20 hours here by getting in a run on the seawall, coffee and strolling in our old hood on The Drive, dinner at a Cuban place we used to frequent and then a visit with Shauna and Mike. Add in an uninterrupted sleep and a relaxing room service breakfast and I'd say we're ready for our long flight.

Talk about propitious beginnings to a trip, in the Pearson bookstore I added a few finds so we now have TWO EACH of Dave Eggers' and Nick Hornby's recent works. My two favourite all-time laugh-out-loud writers. Between them and learning Mandarin, I should be able to keep busy for 12 hours!

We talked to Molly & Jacob last night and they seem fine. Perfectly fine. They were supposed to be at least a little upset at our disappearance.
