OH Canada!

We went to Canada this weekend for Eric's old mission companions wedding. We left on Friday morning and drove and drove and drove and drove with our GPS (named lola) leading the way. We stopped in Seattle to eat lunch at Qdoba's, a great meal for two including drinks all for under $4 because we played MASH on their web-site. Stephanie ended up living her dream life, marrying Eric, living in a mansion in Antartica, and was an Engineer. Her end words were "Watch this!" so pretty much is a true and believable story, especially her final words. I on the other hand ended up happily unemployed, married to a pizza delivery driver, and playing WoW in my spare time. I ended up driving...er...going places on a pogo stick and Stephanie ended up with a super fast speedy car. I was very jealous.
Anyways, we went to Canada, they asked us many many questions at the border and wanted to know why we wanted to visit, after we told them we were allowed to continue and made it to Eric Jeannotte's appartment. We met his family and friends and drove in heavy traffic to watch them get married. They had a beautiful wedding and afterwards had a dinner reception where many toasts were given to the bride and groom, embarrassing both of them with their past. After being in the same chair for over 2 hours we wanted to see a little bit of the city so we drove around without having any specific goal in mind and enjoyed looking at the suburbs of Vancouver. That night we slept on our air mattress in Jeannotte's old appartment and had a restful sleep.
The next day we awoke and set out to see the town. We drove through and walked around Stanley park, a very large park on the peninsula of Vancouver. There was many things to see and enjoyed a long walk on the short beach. We went to Lighthouse park, and Lola(our GPS) sent us through some small residential roads and we finally made it to the park. We apparently missed the memo of having to bring a dog on the hike because everyone else had at least one if not two dogs. We were quite hungry after that so we went to subway and got us some lunch. We headed back downtown to another park to eat lunch and looked at the pretty but cold ocean. We decided that if we wanted to make it home that night we better get moving, so we left for a long, wet, dark drive. It was funny at the border when they asked what province our plates were from. When we told them Utah he quickly apologized and asked us the normal questions and let us through. We arrived home completely tired and worn out eleven and were out like a light. We had lots of fun, and were glad to be able to see Eric and Kim get married. We now have Canadian money and seashells and dont really know what were going to do with them, but I guess we have souvenirs of our adventures.
