Wreck Beach: Coffee + Donut

Wreck Beach is a nude beach on the west coastline below UBC.  It's pretty isolated because you have to climb down a giant, winding set of uneven stairs.  I was silently scoffing all the people we passed huffing and panting up the stairs while we were on our way down, but I was way less judgemental on the way back up.  Sucks to my assmar and a truly bloated confidence in my own athletic ability.

33 Acres

I like most of the breweries I've visited since we moved to Vancouver, but I love 33 Acres. It's an bright, clean space and has a visual palette of white, wood, and metal with some greenery thrown in.   Against my will, I make a deep connection with someone every time I'm there. Sometimes it's the staff, other times I wind up bonding with a stranger.

Our First Vancouver Apartment

Early Thoughts on Vancouver

I've been putting of this post for a while. I didn't kid myself that the transition from life in Edmonton to Vancouver it would be easy or predictable, but the last month has riddled my expectations with surprises.

We left a huge and lonely apartment behind and drove through an a drizzly mess of prairies and mountains.  We hopped out of the car a few times to take photos but it was mostly a rush to set up in our new space. For the last month I'd been living in a disaster of a half-packed apartment and Warren had been living in Vancouver on our friends' floor.
