Day One

Food shopping trip #1

The view from our 'loft'

Here is my bed for the next few weeks

Okay so I landed in Vancouver around 11am local time. The place we are staying at is about 20 minutes away from the airport. We are staying in a loft type environment. It was all a little overwhelming getting settled in and meeting everyone. Everyone seems very cool so far which is good as we will being spending 3 weeks together.

Just after we settled in Micheal Budman came by to visit. He gave us a motivating speech (really). It really got everyone excited and pumped.

Monika, Lynn and myself went out grocery shopping today. I had everyone's food requests. We spent just over $500 on food. We covered all bases and everyone in the house is happy with what we got.

My first shift is tomorrow at Robson. The best part is so far I have Friday night off which is when the opening ceremonies are taking place.

I am going to crash now as my body thinks its midnight and I have been up since 5am.
