If it's Friday, we must be in Vancouver!

Had to leave San Francisco this morning for the next stop on our journey, Vancouver.  By the time we got to the hotel and dropped our stuff it was already 3 pm!  Spent the afternoon exploring the area immediately around the hotel - a small shopping center with a great supermarket and a 3 story mall across the street.  Unfortunately, no movie theaters, so we still haven't seen HP-DH2.  The interesting thing to me about this part of our trip is that we are apparently in Vancouver's Chinatown.  The grocery store had all sorts of Asian food products in addition to stuff I did recognize (like diet Coke!)  Sarah was sampling the foods that were out; Samantha refused to try anything she did not know!  At the food court, Samantha and I had burgers but Sarah had Vietnamese food (beef/noodle bowl); the lady at the counter did not want to make the soup spicy, so Sarah had to add hot sauce to it before she would eat!

Tomorrow is the never ending flight to Beijing.  We will be on the flight for 11 hours.  Just hope they've got some good movies on the plane.  I've got the Kindle charging so I'll have something to read.  The girls should be well rested and ready to hit Beijing running!
