weekend pics

this weekend marked canada's first february long weekend; yesterday was bc family day.  suffice it to say, it was a family kind of weekend (not that we need a stat holiday as an excuse to spend time together).

there was a day spent wandering about the city. in chinatown we each had a lovely bowl of noodle soup; mine had a curry based broth that was the best i have ever had.  you must try harvest community kitchen, you won't be disappointed. i can't wait to get back there (it's a great little block of boutiques and eateries).  in gastown we had our last hot chocolate festival drink at secret location; stefan loved it, it had coffee in it. at granville island stefan picked up groceries while kai and i took a quick tour of the boat show; kai thought it was the best thing he's seen (bedrooms and bathrooms and kitchens with full sized refrigerators, etc) while i was simply nauseous (i can't even handle being on a swing too long!).

another day was spent in whistler.  while the boys were on the mountain skiing/boarding i wandered the village and trails, took photographs, poked into some shops, and enjoyed a chai or two.  when we met up we had a yummy lunch and then came home.  a lovely day completed.

and a day was spent hunkered down at home; a run, a board game, a movie and popcorn, video game playing, reading, and lounging.  a pretty good weekend, if you ask me.
