It starts, the quickening!

They descended on Vancouver on June 6th. Guy and Anna that is, not a bunch of immortals (that incident was way over by 1985 and was over in New York). We picked them up from the Airport and proceeded by cab back to our place. We gave them a chance to catch their breath and then took them for brunch at Sophie's Cosmic Cafe. After finishing off a tasty meal we went down to Granville Island and showed them around. While there a crow decided to swoop me. Which reminded me of Macquarie University and the magpies that used to attack the international students.

The next day we showed them around town briefly before going to the Vancouver Aquarium. Guy went nuts with his Camera, as did Shannon as this was her first trip to the Aquarium with her new Camera. We were lucky enough to see the Otter's hold hands like in the youtube video and from the webcam. Some of Shan's pictures from the day can be seen on Flickr.

Later that night we went down to Bard on the Beach and saw Taming of the Shrew ... Spaghetti Western version. It was awesome. Lots of laughs and great transition to the setting. As always an enjoyable play up until the final message.

Tomorrow was going to be Hive overseas reunion.
