vancouver

somehow i was able to talk our friends into vacationing in vancouver for a few days. it was super great. sorry for not blogging there. we were on the 28th floor of the hotel and the only free internet was in the lobby. i was just too lazy. :) we did walk about 10mi a day, so that was really good for marathon recovery

vancouver is beautiful and has every kind of culture there.
highlights to follow:
climbing the grouse grind. basically this is a giant stairstepper that goes a mile up. the actual grind was closed for renovations but we found a different trail up. the forest was beautiful and it seemed like we were walking thru select scenes of starwars.
humid. dallas taking a rest break
we made it to the top!
vancouver has a pretty nice aquarium.
it's a good thing to do when it's raining outside
as long as you don't mind weaving between herds of children
thanks SO MUCH tony and teri for going with us
it wouldn't have been the same without you!

Hey Andi,

You don't know me. I'm a friend and coworker of Teri's. She sent me to your blog to see the posted pictures of Vancouver as I was asking her about her vacation! Congratulations on completing the marathon. I am impressed by anyone who does that. I can easily bike more than 100 miles in a day but running 24 is just something I'm probably never going to do. Take care and thanks again for the pics!
