Vancouver 2010

I feel like I am the only one excited about Olympics in all of Canada. Until now, I had never paid any attention to winter Olympics. When I notice the mammoth effort that goes into putting on a show like this, I am so impressed. Most of the locals I speak with seem to complain about this event. Road closures, budget cuts, yada yada yada. I believe some sacrifice is always needed for great things to happen. Anyway, I am looking forward for some Olympic fun.

What’s so funny..

Laughter It was early September morning. The last few days of the summer and the Sun here in Vancouver. I was having coffee at the chain coffee shop and getting ready for a walk in the fabulous Stanley park. I saw a lot of people jump out of a truck. They took a  lot of huge sculptures and were placing it on a patch of ground.

I went closer to have a look and found out this is a temporary art installation in Vancouver. They were funny!

The chickens will be happy for that. They were explaining to me the jargon one needs to avoid while buying eggs. They gave me a brochure as to what certifications one needs to look for while buying eggs. The brochure had more jargon than what one needs to avoid. I left more confused than when I stopped by.
