PDA of Cal Langdon
Stupid idiots screwed up our motor-home reservations. So now we have to take some dinky tent trailer. Oh yea, great honeymoon. Knew Italy would have been a greater destination not stupid Canada. But Jane insisted. I swear if it wasn't for that stupid cat tattoo I wouldn't have given in. Well maybe I can catch the Travel Services before they leave the office for 5:00.

What is this junk of a tent trailer you reserved for me? I specifically asked for a nice, romantic motor-home. You do remember this is our honeymoon don't you? Please reply quick and get this resolved!

Well looks like we get a leaky tent trailer rather than a motor-home. I don't really mind but Cal is furious. He keeps arguing with the manager but it doesn't seem like his charm is working this time. We'd better get going if we are to explore Vancouver and meet up with Mary and Malcom for tomorrow. Maybe I can butt into this argument and try to end it. As if Cal would let a girl finish an argument…

I can't believe Jane talked me into taking this stupid tent trailer and tiny jeep.

I swear cat tattoos do something to me.

I think I'm going to be sick. I have to take over Jane's driving. Where did she learn?

So Cal took over. He looked like he was gonna hurl so I guess I'm glad. I finally managed to convince him to let the argument go after a lot of coaxing. He says I owe him big time and you can be sure I'll live up to that promise. Vancouver is so beautiful! All the gorgeous mountains and the ocean is so sparkling bluey-green. Not grey-black like at home. Well I guess that's only in New York, but it's still a nice change. We are just driving through a little street called Gastown. It's so cute! Oh! Spaghetti! We have to stop there for lunch!
PDA of Cal Langdon
Well at least Jane picked a reasonable place for lunch. Some little restaurant called "The Old Spaghetti Factory." I think I ate at least five loaves of bread. We then walked around this little Gastown for a bit. I must say it is quite cute but for goodness sakes does it have to rain in July? Jane offered to drive after lunch but I told her I could drive perfectly well. We are planning to go to some Stanley Park for a walk. There seems to be some nice seawall there. Should be interesting. Maybe we'll see some whales or something. So far this Vancouver place is nice but pretty boring.

Hi honey how are you? So sorry I haven't emailed you sooner but your father fell off the stepladder last night. Nothing serious, just a few scrapes and bruises, luckily. So how is your little trip to Canada so far? I've always wanted to see real igloos that aren't just on the Discovery Channel. Seen any polar bears yet? Do you think you'll be able to get reception and receive this email? I hope so. I heard this "Canada" place isn't as developed as us down here. Hope you don't get too cold. Say hello to Cal for me. Love you honey!

Mom. Canada isn't anything like you think. They are just as developed as us. There are no igloos or polar bears (at least not in Vancouver). And there's no snow, only rain. Plus they have great pasta here. Like great. And the people are so nice! They even tell you when you drop a quarter. I'm telling you, this place does not get enough credit. Tell dad to be careful on that stepladder. It's fairly old and bound to break sooner or later. Tell him an investment in a new stepladder isn't a bad idea. Love you to mom. Cal says hi.
PDA of Cal Langdon
Stupid stupid Canada. It's raining. And I can't find any place for us to stay. Haven't they heard of trailer parks here? Apparently not. Jane wants us to stay in Stanley Park. Yea it's nice and all, but I just don't know if this Canada place is safe yet! I'll find some nice place for us to stay if it's the last thing I do (and I bet it will be).

That spaghetti place was great! I loved it. We went for a walk around the Stanley Park seawall. That was gorgeous. Now we are just trying to find some nice place to set up the tent trailer for the night. At first Cal wanted to drive through the night. Luckily I convinced him otherwise. I was not going spend my honeymoon in discomfort. Now I'm trying to tell him that staying in Stanley Park for the night would be fine. He claims that we don't know these Canadians and that they may rob us at anytime. I don't believe that. Why just today when I dropped a quarter, a nice gentleman told me! That would have never happened in New York. People want every bit of money they can get. Even quarters. I really am beginning to love this Canada place. Sure it's a little cold, but the fresh sea air is, well, refreshing. And I mean what about the spaghetti? It's like North America's Italy here! If only we had more time here. Maybe we don't have to see Mary and Malcom. Oh but he needs his lucky hat. I forgot.Oh, looks like Cal found a place for us to stay for the night.
