X-Scape


well, seenas im not in vancouver and i cant just go up grouse mountain whenever i want, my mum and i went to an indoor snow dome!
its not grouse but at least i got to snowboard for 2 hours!!
it was fantastic. of course i fell at the top of the lift a couple of times but hey, why change the habit of a lifetime!!
the lift though was no chair lift that you can sit back and relax in, it was a button lift, like in the picture, and they are not so easy to relax on!!!!
it was a really fun day though...i really enjoyed spending the day with my mum!
tim is open to the idea of learning either snowboarding or skiing so thats great too!!!
until next time...

A Weekend Of Fun

i had a rare 4 days off in a row this weekend and really made the most of it...
my friend henri is over from vancouver for christmas so she came up to liverpool. the 2 of us and tim went up to scotland on friday to visit mike and jessi and their baby kael who i was meeting for the first time!! he is absolutely adorable.
it was a really fun weekend. we went bowling and tim thrashed all of us and then had a great mexican meal. it was a very relaxing time although things did get a bit heated in a game of dutch blitz!!
henri, tim and i travelled back to liverpool on sunday and henri and i met up with kirsty (also a product of ywam vancouver) and hung out in liverpool for the day...eating, drinking coffee, shopping and visiti
ng "the beatles" sights!
