18/1/2014: Bucks/Hens Day/Night

Today we welcome Justin, Susan and Adam B to Canada! :)

I can't tell you too much about what the boys got up to during the day/night but I can give you a brief run down what us girls got up to. Not your average hens/bachelorette. I wanted to show the girls that have come all this way some of the sights around Vancouver - as well as visit a couple of "geeky sights" around the place. So we started out the day in Stacey's apartment with way too much food and the girls shared their favourite memories of time we've spent together. We donned our 'geek chic' and headed out into the city - stopping first at Scully's apartment (where The X-Files was filmed), a couple of geek stores on Granville Street and then we headed across to North Vancouver via the seabus and went up Grouse Mountain. Grouse mountain was also an X-Files filming location, but is also an amazing thing for tourists to do because of the view you can see from the top. Sadly on the day that we went up, it was foggy below so we couldn't see much - but when we got up above the clouds we had amazing views of clouds and mountains and sunshine - and we watched the sun disappear. It was the first time that Lamees had seen snow so it was pretty awesome to share that moment with her. We had some lunch at the top and took a bunch of photos and then headed back to our hotel to quickly freshen up before heading out to "CinCin" Restaurant on Robson Street. This is somewhere that came highly recommended by several people so we were really looking forward to it. The food was divine and the service was amazing.
