My biggest pet peeve at the moment are loan consolidators that constantly call. But I do like the fact that when I tell them I still have two more years left, they hang up right away. I just wish that they would tell all of their loan consolidator friends that so they would leave me alone. And for some reason they always call me Friday nights around dinner time.

By the way, if you're ever in Vancouver, go to this place called La Casa Gelato. It has 218 flavors of gelato. I love it! Their Death By Mango flavor is really delicious, especially if you like something a little tart.

I'm back! Well I've been back for three days but have yet to blog about it. I took the Greyhound up to Stockton to my cousin's house. My two year old niece was feeling a little sick which led to her throwing up on my bag. It's OK because she said "I'm sooo sorry, Auntie Jenny." How could I not forgive that? The next day we went to Sacramento to pick up my Aunt and began our 18 hour road trip. It took us 24 hours to get there because we stopped over someone's house in Washington for six hours. The first few days we were there it was raining, and I was a little sick. That was very unpleasant. Then we went to Victoria Island and spent most of our time near the beach. We went back to Vancouver and went to all the sightseeing places. Then we went to Blaine, Washington because one of our family friends has a vacation house up there. It was very beautiful. We got to go to the outlets in Washington. I appreciated being in Washington because I got to use my phone without roaming. After Washington, we went for a day trip to Whistler. I would really love to go there one winter and stay at their resort. During our last week in Canada, we spent most of our time going around Vancouver. I got to meet up with Kathryn and watch Transformers. That movie is BOMB! Optimus Prime kicks metal butt! My last day was spent shopping in order for me to get rid of all of the Canadian money I had. Everyone I went to Canada with eventually getting sick. I got sick at the beginning of the trip, but everyone else got sick at the end. But they got sick a lot more than I did. And now I am back from my three week vacation. I bought lots of stuff, but I wish I could have bought real Canadian maple syrup and a Mountie hat. Next time I'll definitely buy those. Here are some pictures of the trip.

In Canada... where the moose are.

Riding carousels make me feel like a kid again. =D

SNOW?!?! In July?!?! Only in Whistler...

Hello! I'm Mrs. Humpty Dumpty.

Washington has pretty sunsets.


Ain't she just adorable?

Pretty pretty little lilies..


We stopped by the Weed Rest Area. Surprisingly, I saw no one toking up. Hmm.

My niece being gangsta...
