The chronicles of Vancouver: The Trees, Colin Firth and The Raincoat

The Trees:
Well I arrived home in Vancouver on the 23rd of December and as requested the tree was not decorated. I know it's a childish but it wouldn't be Christmas if I didn't decorated the tree. I woke up on the 24th and decorated the tree. I was nice, I left all my sisters ornaments for her to put on. We went to pick my sister up at the airport, she was flying in from London, England. Anyway after a terrify drive home (dad can't drive), we were in the kitchen discussing my sisters promotion when there was a terrible crash......down came the Christmas tree. There were ornaments from my parents first Christmas....37 years ago and some ornaments my parents had given me over the years......smashed. I'll admit it, I cried, more for my mum and the thought that I knew she thought Christmas was ruined. Lucky, all was not lost, there were loads of ornaments left and my sisters were all in tact....they weren't on the tree! So a few tears and some hot glue later, we had tree!!!!

Then I believe it was the 4th of January. My sister, dad and I went for dinner, came home and my sister and I went to get a video. We were gone all of 15 mins and this is what happened!


It took out the power, phone, and cable......for my whole street! And landed where we park the cars! Anyway, that's the trees!

Colin Firth:
I went to see a Picasso exhibit with my mum. I was avoiding the overly patronizing tour, when I notice a rather attractive 35ish man. As I got closer he began to look very familiar........he looked like.....could it be.....Colin Firth......


Looking very much like that! Quite nice in person!

The Raincoat:
Long and the short of it........I didn't have one!!!!!!

More to come.........
