Meet the parents

I've missed my parents.

But they are here now, arrived safely and semi-conscious - and we have been able to keep them awake the whole day. After they arrived we had some tea and then went for lunch in a local seafood restaurant - I had a really nice creamy chowder and I'm still full.

Vancouver has been showing it's best - it's over 20 degrees and West End and the beach was full of sunbathers, even some swimmers. Me, it's too cold until it reaches over 25, and even then I might not be brave enough to go to the sea.

Shame Dragon has to work so much - he's going to work tomorrow and leaving to San Fransisco again next week. I'm probably going with my parents to visit Vancouver Island meanwhile - I've been here over six months and although we've been to Seattle we haven't been to Victoria yet. But apparently that's what other Vancouverites do as well - they visit their sister city on the other side of the border approximately twice as often as the capital of BC, Little England, Victoria.
