Snow in Vancouver

Snow on Nanimo Street in Vancouver

It snowed in Vancouver this past weekend. First on Friday, followed by a melt, then a big dump of snow happened on Saturday night.

Contrary to the past few days Saturday was actually nice even though it was bitter cold.

We had fun watching drivers try to make it up the hill seen in this picture. Unfortunately for one man with a pricey car he just could not make it up no matter how hard he tried.

Getting Games in Vancouver

Though I am not much of a gamer myself, my partner seems to burn through a lot of Nintendo DS games so I have developed a sense for finding new releases in Vancouver. That tip for you is to pass up your stop at Future Shop and move on to EB Games if you really want it first.

Always expect delays at Canada Customs when ordering goods online

Recently I have refound my love of online shopping. It's true that one should shop locally based on principle, but some products are just difficult to find in Canada. Some printed t-shirts, for example, are sold here but marked up at unreasonable rates. Presumably this is because when you buy online you get direct from the seller as opposed to re-sale. Enough said.
