Aggasiz, BC, Canada - 2nd November 2008
By: AbbyB
What a beautiful view! This photo doesn't quite capture how colourful everything is here. This is in the countryside of Aggasiz (pronounced Ay-gah-see) and right after a torrential rainfall. Unfortunately there were some other places that were slightly more scenic, but Abby couldn't take any pictures because she was too busy driving through the torrential rain (and she isn't the most experienced driver in the world).

There's a small cafe in a small airport that claims to have the best pie in the world. People literally fly here to eat a slice of pie.
Unfortunately, sharing a host with Greedy means that one doesn't get to eat very much, so I only recieved a bite of pie before he took over.

As you probably know, the presidential election for the United States is tomorrow and even though I'm not in America, I'm in the closest country to the United States, and so everyone has been paying close attention. Tonight I am watching Saturday Night Live's Presidential Bash.

Can you see the crowd behind me? There's an event on winter preparedness in the Convo Mall at Abby's school.
Nobody was particularly interested (living in Canada means that you should know about winter preparedness), but they were giving out snacks inside reusable shopping bags!
I heard a rustling from the inside the bag, which startled me, but it was only Greedy, who had discovered the snacks.

I got to attend the Grande Finale concert of the CBC Radio Orchestra. It was the last remaining radio orchestra in North America, but due to budget cuts, the CBC cannot afford the one million dollars it takes to fund the orchestra each year. It's sad, because everyone was really talented and it was such a good concert.
The concert was held at the Chan Centre at the University of British Columbia. You can't tell, but the theatre is designed to look like a cello.
Abby snapped this photo of the stage at the beginning of intermission.

There was a windstorm and Abby and her sister were afraid that the power was going to go out, so everyone turned off computers and tvs and moved into the kitchen. While Greedy ate all the pistachio pudding, everyone else played cribbage.

Today I saw an adaptation of Cyrano de Bergerac at the Stanley Theatre in Vancouver.
Any photos inside were strictly prohibited, but there was some information on the theatre outside that you can read.

It snowed yesterday, so today Abby took me onto the roof of her school to look at the mountains. If I look a little blurry, that's because I was shivering. It was cold up there!
Look, the pond in the Academic Quadrangle is partially frozen!
Brr! Time to get inside.
