As we passed another weed shop this morning after breakfast on our way to Granville Island, I was finding the west coast lifestyle noticeably different from the rest of Canada. Perhaps quirky would be a fitting description. In the
Granville Island Market, I sipped lychee bubble tea while listening to Ralph the former physics major play '40 tunes on his ukulele. I spied a skull and crossbones flag flying on a sailboat nearby in the harbour - is that even allowed? We next spotted an intriguing poster, but sadly we didn't have time to take in a Zen workshop with Martin entitled "Rolling Down A Grassy Hill".
Rather than going Zen, we spent the afternoon with my Uncle Robert, who's been living here in West Vancouver since the '60's. When I visit Robert we always seem to walk through Stanley Park and then go for dinner at our favorite Singapore restaurant. It was a nice last evening spent with family.
By the way, here is Elizabeth showing off her muscle man moves over breakfast while feigning "Oh, is there gum on my shoe?" Maybe she's caught the west coast quirk.
