Our First Trip to Canada

The other day Jeremy had the urge to go to a hockey game and when he gets something stuck in his mind that he really wants to do, who am I to say no, especially if I want to do it too. So right after school we left and went to Vancouver. Crossing the border successfully we found our way to the arena.

Hockey games are so exciting. Action packed the whole time. Everyone's screaming and yelling the whole time and really into it, especially those Canadians. Hockey is there #1 sport. The game was sold out and always is. It was there 285th consecutive sold out game. Crazy.

The boys were glued to the game the whole time and well Maryjane, all that we could do to keep her from bothering us, I mean happy, was to keep food in front of her. She's not coming next time.

Fun to try on, we didn't buy them this time. Cute though.

Vancouver Canucks, we will be back.. They won by the way 4-0.

You think you're entering this foreign land being in a different country and all, but it's so much the same. The city itself was huge. It felt like a mix of something you would see in England with a Japanese influence. Very tall narrow buildings squeezed into a small amount of space. There money is in dollars too, all the same amounts, but with different pictures on them. Good thing they accept American money, even though we don't accept there's. We let the kids each keep Canadian $5 and some change for souvenirs. Fun, Fun, can't wait to do it again.
