So we're into the third week of October, the rain has passed and today brought a gorgeous sunny afternoon with 14C temperature. It was time to get back into the kayak and paddle the urban waters of Vancouver. I saw two harbour seals, one of which I started to play with in the water. He/she came out on the side of the boat and then immediately behind me. As I tried to make a circle with the boat to entice the creature to stay around, sadly enough, seal was gone somewhere else. The winds were whipping up a bit and it was high seas for a while out there!
Am I the only one who finds the new Canucks line-up hard to get used to? Ad and I got settled into all the team players last season, and now they've gone and traded lots of players. Bertuzzi is down in Florida. January 7th will be the only chance we Vancouverites will have to see him play against the 'new' Canucks. How that will pan out with Nasland here and Todd there, is anybody's guess. So far, I find it a crying shame that Anson Carter wasn't bought up. Now everyone's pinning there hopes on Luongo. And let's not dare think of any injuries. For the price paid to acquire him, it should hopefully bring us to post-season play. One can only hope…
The annual Parade of Lost Souls is coming up, and as last year's Parade was cancelled, this is the first time that Ad and I will be able to witness this very unique Vancouver event.
Off to have a late afternoon well-deserved coffee!
