Today was another beautiful day weather wise. We've had a pretty chilled out day after our late night watching the ice hockey! Got up fairly early and tried a French Vanilla coffee from the breakfast room which was quite nice, but a bit sweet! Also got to skype with Mum and Clint earlier which is always a treat (sorry Kay for keeping you awake)..
Jacob realised we'd left our insurance documents at the autosales, so we had to go back to collect them today - partly their fault they got left as the desk was full of papers, and ours for not double checking.. We have documents and papers coming out of our ears, so no surprise! We went to see how converting our drivers license works here. You can drive on your UK one for 90days in BC, but as we're moving to Jasper on Sunday, another 90days starts from then - so no hurry in getting a license just yet! But will probably sort it sooner than later as we need to update our policy when we move.
On the way back from town we called in at a small grocery store and bought a couple of treats to try! Including a '3 Musketeers' bar which is a bit like a MilkyWay but mint flavour, and a 'Coffee Crisp' which is similar to a Time-Out but coffee like. Jacob also got a 'Butterfinger' which is like a peanut brittle covered in chocolate. We had some strawberries too, which I have to say are huge! I've taken a photo as they're about half the size of my hand! The oranges here are amazing too, about half the size of my head!
We got a take-out from a restaurant called 'White Spot' tonight. I had a spicy sandwich wrap which was nice, but only managed to eat half of it as it was huge(!) and Jacob tried the 'pountine', which is a Canadian (Quebec) dish.. fries with gravy and cheese curd (yuck), but he enjoyed it!
Not much else to update you on today! Waiting for my washing to finish then off to bed..
