Vancouver

We made it to Richmond (a little south of Vancouver) around 1:00 today.  The Vancouver airport was very neat. It had totem poles and was very pretty.   It was awesome to arrive and get settled before we would have ever left Denver if we stayed on our original flight.  We made it through customs in record time.  Our bags arrived and we took a free shuttle to our hotel.

We relaxed for a bit once we arrived at our hotel.  We are staying at Accent Inn.  It is nice.  The room is pretty small, so it will be interesting to see how we all fit once Mom, Dad, and Drew arrive.  The hotel has a hot tub (but it is out of order), and a small work out facility (just a treadmill, elliptical, and bicycle).  There is a larger work out facility that we can go to down the road.  For dinner we decided to go to the Shark Club Bar and Grill.  The Wednesday deal was $.29 wings, so we got wings and a pizza. The pizza was very good.  Thom tried some Canadian beers and I tried a Somersby. It was really good-tasted just like carbonated apple juice.  After dinner we came back to the hotel because we were exhausted.  We were asleep by 8:30!

I'm not sure what we will do today.  I had so many ideas of what I wanted to do, but they are all outdoor activities and it is raining today! We will have to see what the weather brings.
