Aldergrove Car Show

Yesterday, we went to a car show where Andrew's uncles both had vehicles. We made it there just in time for the car show to end, so we didn't have much to look at, but what was there was absolutely gorgeous. We went back to Andrew's uncles house for a big get together, where all the guys lined their cars up for a photo, and we all had dinner and drinks.

You And Me Go Fishin' In The Dark

Today was another good day of wandering downtown Vancouver. We took the sky train all the way to Waterfront and walked along the seawall to Stanley Park. It was such a beautiful day outside! The walk took us about half an hour, making occasional stops to look out at the scenery. We went into the aquarium, too! I was very happy to sit at the shark tank and just watch the giant sea turtle swim around, but we did have to move on to the rest of the aquarium. We spent a good two hours there before we decided it was time to head back. We took a walk through Gas Town to find somewhere to eat lunch, and eventually settled on an east indian place. The butter chicken was to die for! After exploring Gas Town a little bit more, we decided it was time to get home...we were exhausted! Here are a few photos of the day, enjoy!

Granville

Andrew and I went out to Granville Island the other day, there is so much to do! It's really hard to believe that you are actually in the middle of Van city. We did a couple of laps around the public market, there is so much fresh fruit, veggies and fish. I love the small shops all around the island. I forgot to charge my camera the night before, and it died part way through the day. (The above photo was taken with my Blackberry. And the cupcakes and donuts you see are actually soaps!) I ate plenty of chocolate for you, Mom. Here is a photo diary of our day on Granville.
