Vancouver Visitors

I've been bad about posting stuff here, but I don't think it's cheating to back-blog, so here goes.

In February my sister came up to visit me in Vancouver and we spent four days touring Seattle and Vancouver together. We started at Cafe Mox, a board game bar with our friends Tim and Emily. The next day we soaked in some coffee culture at Vivace and a very fancy Starbucks. We hit up the Seattle Art Museum, which had a great Gauguin/Polynesia exhibit and we went to the Seattle EMP. I think we spent too much time in the Experience Music section and not enough in the Science museum. In Vancouver we did a cycling tour of Vancouver in the pouring rain, checked out Chinatown, and ate some tasty food.

Last week Eric and Ruth came out. It rained the entire time they were here, but we still managed to go out and have fun in the museums, shops and rainforest. The cherry blossoms were in full bloom and we went to several botanic gardens to enjoy the cherry blossoms, magnolia flowers, tulips and daffodils.
