MERRY CHRISTMAS

Christmas for me has always been marked by tradition such as snow, the story of Christ, gift exchanges, shortbread cookies, and some less obvious items like eating cheese while watching John Wayne movies. I have had to pass up a few of these precious traditions such as snow (there is none in Rainy Vancouver), the cheese during the John Wayne film( to expensive they have P.S.T), but my family is here and thats what makes it worth it.

A CHILD AGAIN

Despite the fact that I am nearly 22 I am still thoroughly amused by the face my Dad makes with his eggs at the restaurant.

THE BODY IS NOTHING WITHOUT THE MOUTH

After reviewing all the video files in my library I have come to a conclusion. It appears that I find great entertainment in having people compete in sports that require them to see how much they can fit in there mouth. Some people have bigger mouths and can fitt lots of cupcakes, others have a talent for fitting 12 marshmellows in there mouths (GO Stephanie), and some have earned my respect for attemptong to put ice cubes in there mouths.

Tour de France Europe 2006

I was lucky, I got to spent three weeks in Europe this summer, two weeks in France and one week in London. I would love to post all of my pictures, but there are so many, I have nearly 600 good ones easily. I have decided instead to post my top ten pictures from the entire trip, believe me it was not an easy task, how do you describe 3 weeks in Europe in 10 pictures.

I got to visit the Toronto Airport for 7 hours, yes I had a largely long lay over in Toronto before leaving for France, and to my great disappointment I did not see any Toronto Maple Leafs.


My view through the window every morning during breakfast in Grenoble, France.


The food in France was most wonderful, the bread, the cheese, and the and the chocolate. In some places if they ask you if you want fries, the fries go in the sandwich. I had a chicken and avocado sandwich in London (but sadly no picture)


This is town center of Grenoble France, don't get me wrong Grenoble is a large city with a population of 157,900.



Let me introduce to the fast paced, easy to use outdoor male washroom in Grenoble. Thank goodness it was no longer being used, but when I checked it out, it smelt awful!.

This happens to be on of my favorite pictures, me and the girls were trying to mimic the statues at the top of the fountain, but Scoop who took the picture didn't understand that, so we just look like a bunch of nuts.
Consider this more like installment one of my Europe pictures, I will post more of my favorites at a later date.
