Vancouver, Victoria and thanksgiving

Hey,
   About two weeks ago we went back to Vancouver again. We had coupons for a fancy Hotel so we stayed at the Pan Pasfic, which is an almost normal hotel on top of a conference center with a veuw of the Harbor, so it wasn't amazingly fancy(which I still really want to see) but it was kinda neat. The pool was nice and you can see everything so thats cool. It was a bit wet and rainy but it about the point where you point out that its not wet and rainy because it normally is.
   The Saturday that we got there (sept,18) we didn't do much. There was a dinner as part of the hotel deal which was really nice. We went and watched guys punch each other (I think it was a mixed martial arts of some kind) and watched a lot of Discovery channel.
   Sunday we went to The Science Center which is kinda neat because there was a lot of hands on things... though really there was just a lot of Puzzles... so less science center and more Puzzle center but they are in the middle of fixing it and they had Body Works taking up a large portion of the place (which we didn't go to because we've seen before). We then found food at a neat sports bar and Ice cream at a real nice gelato place (I think BC believes that ice cream is always gelato because they always call it that even if it's not really gelato... though this place is. They usealy only call ice cream bar's like the kind you get at gas stations Ice cream....). We then went to the cheep hotel we had that was near the ferry to Victoria.
     Took the first ferry to Victoria on Monday, it had a Farly good buffet and since your just sitting in it for the ferry trip its kinda neat. I like Victoria a lot... its really pretty. We went to the Museum which is a really cool one... kinda like the ROM, but really just its own thing.  Theres also a ice cream parlor... that has milkshakes and float's. Tastie!! We wondered around and I really want to come back.
     Now this past weekend was thanksgiving. We went to Rob's famalys house. It was a nice day. Went on the boat again and talked. Ya food and friends! I made Apple Pecan Cheesecake. I cut the recipe in half because its huge and I kinda think that the cheesecake should have some cinnamon in it or something it tasted to separate to me.
     Still no job... /sigh... But I finished the second unit of Calculus today and now just need to study so I can do well on the Functions exam!
     Thats whats been up the last little bit! So...Well...Ya...
