On Thursday, the day before Good Friday, I boarded a bus (???) to Richmond, BC, Canada. I was rather shocked, as I had booked my ticket thru Amtrak, which, as you may know, is a train! Anyways, I picked up my ticket at the ticket window and the nice lady told me to go get on the big white bus out front. Did I mention I was shocked?
I stowed my suitcase in the bottom part of the bus and climbed aboard. I got 2 seats to myself in the middle of the bus. I was reminded of hockey trips back East, except that I had 2 seats to myself and I didn't know anyone on the bus.
L & K picked me up, tho they were at the wrong hotel to start. It's not my fault the city of Richmond names 2 of their hotels with the same name, only changing what they are. One is a hotel, the other is an inn. crazy. They kindly took me for a Tim's then to drop off my stuff, then on to a taco salad supper at the MR.
On Friday, for lunch, the ladies served a FAB Greek meal. YUM!!!!
On Saturday, for lunch, the ladies served a yummy bbq meal.
On Sunday, for lunch, the ladies served roast beef for main course and cheesecake for dessert.
For supper on Friday & Saturday, there were Subway party subs. (I don't like Subway.)
I left before supper on Sunday.
I enjoyed the readings and addresses. And the gospels and the hymn sings. Peter made us learn a new tune to #104. Can't remember it right now, but I really liked it.
I also liked that there were cute boys there (!) and that I got to drink Tim's. No, I don't particularly like their coffee, and therefore I drink double-doubles, which are basically warm, sweet beverages that taste vaguely like coffee. I don't drink Starbucks when I'm in Canada!
