I asked Lynne what we should plan for activities on Saturday and she suggested we try something "Christmassy" (Or should that be "Christmasish"?) I will leave some of the options open and let 'em decide after they get here.
I did think of a great way to spend at least one hour though. I had to look in this blog to see when we last visited Bloedel Conservatory in Vancouver's Queen Elizabeth Park. I found that Jay and I visited during the week between Christmas and New Years last year. I'm pretty sure 2010, after connecting with VanDusen Gardens, was the first year it was decorated for Christmas. I'd love walking into the humid, tropical environment under a 70-foot, triodetic dome on any cold day. Even if one spends an hour inside, it really feels like a mini-vacation. I guess that might be because I like vacations wherever verdant banana trees grow. In addition, seeing all the lights and poinsettias is a bonus this month.
And actually, I want to see if my friend is still there.
