Today we left Langley and drove into downtown Vancouver so Dan could go to a seminar given by Dan Sullivan, from the Strategic Coach. The drive took almost an hour, twice as long as we thought, because of traffic and construction. The normal things that happen when you decrease three lanes of traffic into one. And on top of that we were driving into the very downtown section of Vancouver that was nuts with traffic and one way roads. And shoppers, tourists, and pedestrians galore. ACK!
The seminar was in a nice hotel and while Dan was there I read, walked around, shopped, and stopped and had lunch at this great Thai place across the street. I had Drunken Spicy Noodles, and it was very good.
After the seminar was over we left the downtown area and drove to Fort Langley. It used to be a real fort and is now a tourist attraction. We stopped in the town area and it was a great little area for tourist walking. Alot of galleries, antique shops, places to eat, bookstores, and even a fabric shop. We did some strolling and shopping,(ok, we both strolled, Dan read a book while I shopped). I found a couple of crocheted lace tablecloths I think will look nice at home when.
We came back to the hotel and Dan watched a game on TV. and worked a little and I kept reading The Girl Who Kicked The Hornets Nest. I am more than halfway done already, it is really good.
Than we had a late dinner next door at a little place called Tim Hortons. They are all over the place and are alot like Starbucks, with sandwiches and doughnuts and soup available also.
Dan is already asleep and snoring, so I am going to say good night for today.
Tomorow will bring another chapter.
Love you all,
Ma and Pa
