Greetings from beauitful Vancouver, BC!
Hai peeps!
Just a very quick hello from Vancouver. Today is my birfday, and I get to spend it in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Working, yes, but still. The setting of mountains and ocean is truly spectacular.
I've been here since Monday night. Mr. BrownA had a beautiful bouquet of yellow tulips delivered to my room on Tuesday, so I could enjoy my birthday flowers all week.
Last night, I went out by myself to an excellent seafood supper. It cost twice as much as what my dinner per diem allows, but whatever, I don't mind covering the rest, it was so good. I sat at the bar (as I always do). The bartender is from Ottawa, and when he learned it was my birthday-- w00t! I can has free drinkz!
I'll post more details this weekend when I get home.
Kthxbai!

[this is good, especially if it's soaked in alcohol] It's been so long since I visited Canada - I remember visiting Bouchard Gardens in BC. Could Mr. BrownA have grabbed the bouquet from there?
Happy birthday, BrownA!
Happy Birthday! So glad you are having fun in Vancouver. What a beautiful town. You could be working on your birthday in much worse places.
When you get to Phoenix NEXT WEEK, we'll have to do up your birthday again. :-)
Alas, Butchard Gardens are in Victoria, which confusingly is located on Vancouver Island.
I have tulips in my room, but daffodils and cherry blossoms are blooming everywhere here. It's green and fresh. And they have the biggest rhododendrons I've ever seen in my life. Like, the size of small oaks.
You could be working on your birthday in much worse places.
You mean like buried under 10 feet of snow at home? Hellz no.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BROWNA!!!!
You're so lucky, free drinks, beautiful scenery and a vacation & hanging with the AmyH soon!

Happy Birthday B.A.!! It sounds like you're having a glorious week! Kudos too to Mr. B.A. for sending you flowers at your hotel! You've definitely got a keeper there! (Does he have a brother?) :-D
Happy birthday, BA! I hope you have a wonderful day, and have as much yummy seafood as you can eat! (But be careful with that sock monkey...)
Enjoy!
