Hi all from Vancouver!~ I just now connected to the internet.
We met up with Sarah and her beautiful family for lunch! Bob had a later flight out than originally scheduled so he was able to come along. It was great meeting Sarah - just like meeting an old friend!

We had a nice lunch at Red Robin, we thought that would be the best place for the kids. Sarah and I both tried to be good and had salad although I am sure the salads that we had were not WW friendly salads.

It was fun seeing the kids and Bob and Sarah's husband seemed to have things to talk about too. I don't know for sure because I don't think Sarah and I ever had a silent moment!
Bob left about an hour ago for his flight back to LA so he can work tomorrow and it is so quiet and lonely!

I miss him already! I think I'll walk to a book store I saw the other day and kill some time!
You are SOOOO brave to go to the Capilaino Suspension Bridge

Way to scary for me. The actual original suspension bridge is way too long and scary to walk across! I remember doing it when I was a child and my brothers would start it shaking and scare the bejeebers out of me - very mean!
So sorry I missed the chance to meet you too! When Sarah said she had the day off today and the family was thinking of coming to Stanley Park we made last minute plans to meet. Meeting her and the family was an unexpected pleasure because when I planned my business trip it never crossed my mind that Divas lived so near! I am still trying to figure out where everyone lives. Bob thinks I need to make a spreadsheet! Only an engineer would think of that but it probably is a good idea!
We didn't end up going to the Capilaino Suspension Bridge after all even though I really wanted to. We are doing that the next time we come for sure! We arrived later than planned on Friday because SFO was fogged in and we had to switch airports and fly out of LAX. Yesterday we rented bikes and rode around Stanley Park all afternoon...what a beautiful park! I

. We watched and took pics of three cruise ships leaving port and going under the bridge. Linda I thought of you and your upcoming cruise! We saw a Princess, Holland America and RCL ship! I was so jealous I wanted to be on the ship waiving at the people on the shore instead of the other way around.
The weather has been beautiful and everyone is telling us how fortunate we are with the weather. I agree it has been great weather but I don't think we can really appreciate it like the people who live here because in CA we almost always have rainless, sunny days!
Then today we were lazy even though we had agreed to get up and go running in the park - bad us! We slept in and were scrambling around when Sarah called and said they were on their way!
My hotel account the Sutton Place is a beautiful hotel and they upgraded me to an Executive Suite so needless to say we have had a wonderfully perfect weekend! I hate that it is over and that Bob is on his way back home without me. I have to tell you the area around my hotel has the best restaurants and I have been bad all weekend in the eating department! But Bob and I had a great weekend and I

Vancouver! Bob and I both agree we will be back!
I am off to the book store and maybe for some chocolate...it is way too quiet and chocolate might just be the ticket to cure my lonely blues! Not great for the diet but sometimes you have to do what you have to do!
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
