Well team, we are 45 minutes away from heading to the airport.
Here is a VERY quick update from ayer and hoy.
Ayer...gym then we raced out to pick up M&P from the ferry. We had a great lunch and several hours of chit-chat. Also scored on some home made short bread cookies!!
After that we went to an outlet mall...not very exciting. You know you are in Canada when you go to a Quiksilver (surf/beach shop) outlet...
...and then see this sign.
No shorts or rash guards, but that did not stop Bexico from finding some deals!!
After the outlets, we went to Metrotown to get my glasses tightened and see if I could get my iPod case replaced. That business was out of business, but managed to find some workout shorts and new training shoes as well!!
Left Miss Bexico to finish her rounds and I headed to the casino to meet some amigos. Turned out to be a good time, 4 buddies, some cervezas and some blackjack. It would have been a GREAT night at the tables if the double down on the $125 bet had gone as planned. lol Oh well...that is why they call it gambling.
A quick visit turned into 5 hours and then it was time to come home and catch some zzz.
Today was about the gym, returning the rental car and then having our comida (lunch) at our favorite Chinese restaurant, Hons.
While I was at the gimnsio, Bexico dropped off the last of our storage items (pants, wooly socks etc) and somehow managed to hit up an art supply store before picking me up!!
It is wet out there so we scrapped our plan to walk around town from 11-4. Instead, we paid for a 1/2 day extra at the condo so we could leisurely pack and watch once last DVD, The Brick.
Vancouver to San Fran then onto Mex City and into Huatulco for 10am manana. Lots of puddle jumping, but as a sorpresa (surprise) for Bexico is that I checked us in and paid for the seats with extended leg room!! Score.
Okay all...update you manana after we get HOME!!
Hasta luego.

Hola from Vancouver!!
Happy to say I had an email from Ghimbo, my amigo at the gimnasio in Huatulco. He is well and excited to hear about our trip.
Today has been another go go go day.
Left Whistler and got into West Vancouver around noon. We stopped in Park Royal and picked up a few items from the tax-free side of the mall.
Then we were off to the Stupid Store for gas and then onto the storage locker. It was a quick stop as we dropped off our boarding gear and picked up all our Mexico bound items. We will have some full luggage headed south!!
Checked into the condo and managed to track down Snets. I am sorry that we will not be able to hook up on this trip…hope his exam goes well.
Bexico was busy packing but we took a break to pick up some Cubans for me and mi hermano. Kind of a tradition for us.
Continuing on the go go go theme, we headed to PM and had a GREAT dinner at O&Ks. Pollo y ribs…delicious. Thanks you two for cooking and hosting. It was also good to see mi hermana and both my nephew and niece.
Manana we pick up M&P for a lunch, then drop them back off at the ferry. Bexico and I will then head to a surf shop to see about some ropa, the mall and then I am meeting the boys for some cervezas and cards at the casino.
An otro go go go dia.
Hasta luego.
PS...Bexico finally had her oh so good cupcakes!! She also had her hair cut short and looks GREAT!!
