Charlie has been traveling to Canada every week for... way too long now. The poor fella has got to be sick of airports. Valentines day weekend we decided to give him a bit of a reprieve and I met him in Vancouver rather than him flying all the way home. It was a LOVELY weekend. Yes, by California standards it was cold. And rainy. But, we were together exploring a new city with no distractions. It was a fantastic.

The first evening I got in earlier than expected so we quickly checked into our hotel and then hurried off to explore the city. We love the architecture in Vancouver. The tall buildings with all of the glass looking over the water. It was beautiful. We wondered around, got out caffeine fix and eventually landed in Gastown. After drinks at the charming Six Acres we headed to dinner at Peckinpah BBQ kitchen-side. Our favorite seat in any restaurant is usually the seat that gives a good view of the kitchen. The Chefs in this Kitchen were particularly friendly and even shared little bits of the dishes they were serving.
