We have had a few conversations which have gone like this…..
‘Oh she is so cute, whats her name?”
Poppy.
PARPY?
No, Poppy….
PARPY?
um, Poppy, like the flower…
OH!!! PARPY…..
:-/ ??
When you have a canadian accent, you don’t pronounce your O the way that an english accented person does. So Poppy has turned into Parpy……LOL…and given the prune puree i gave her the other day its quite appropriate..heehee.
Something today that was a whole lot scary, was this bridge….
the capliano bridge, first ever rope bridge or something. But it is HIGH, 250ft above a massive canyon. Yep and we went and PAID to walk across it. and it wobbled….A LOT. I had moments when i thought ‘i’m going to freeze’ but it didnt happen thankfully.
On the way back I was stuck behind two people ‘taking their time’ and I was in a dilemma…do i let go of the handrail that has become my lifeline to get round them OR do I trample them into the ground trying to get to the other side……
The we went to stanley park…
and espeically for Hebe, today i cracked it. Found the best scrapbooking store. Buckets and buckets of reduced stock…or ‘half off’ as they say here. And not the ‘dragged out of the fluffy, dust in the corner stuff’ So much more happier now, got quite a few bits and pieces. There were two tables of paper all reduced Hebe!!! and its cheaper here to start of with. I mean i could have spent hours and hours in this store just going through their reduced, but Ben had made me promise not to be in there for more than an hour 🙁
anyway when i get back i will give you the full SP, no more scrapping opps for me now, we are off to whistler tomorrow and then Grouse mountain the day after.
This is a beautiful place *sigh*
but two little things that just mean it aint complete……
only three sleeps guys 🙂
yay for finding a scrap store!! too funny, how they say Poppy’s name. as long as it doesn’t come out sounding like ‘poopy’, you’re good =) OH MY GOSH — i can’t believe you walked across that bridge! wow. my hands are sweating just thinking about it.
