A Day in my Life

I thoroughly enjoyed my day today that I thought I'd share it with you so that you could agree with me. :)

Early morning walk to the bus stop. Clouds are
grey, some light rain showers and nice cool wind -
it's my kind of day.

Waiting for the bus and admiring my new boots.

Julia knocks on her daycare door - what, no fuss, no whining?
.... the day is definitely looking good!

Having a chat with the pink fairy backyardnigan creature
while taking her boots off by herself..definitely looking good.
And off she goes....

Walking to work and noticed something was brewing at
the parliament building..

It's the day the winter olympic torch reaches Victoria from Greece!
(Part of the pre-activities of the Vancouver 2010 winter olympics)

A lot of important people speaking..

Finally, the torch is lit and ready for the relay across Vancouver
island. The flame had been carried from Greece without once
being put off and had travelled by plane, on logging trucks,
underwater, snow sled, you name it. It came in a sophisticated
small lantern like container to Victoria on a canoe and was used to light
the olympic couldron which was then used to light the torch for the relay.

I really liked looking at this old man...he is just glowing.

Coffee at the museum - a newly discovered place. There is something calming about having coffee surrounded by ancient totem poles. Wow! Numerous pecans in my cinnamon bun? The gods were
smiling at me today.

Got a visit from a very cute furry friend.

And baby seagulls keeping me company while I finished work.

I saw an angel in the street.Snuggling up with two books from my favorite author, Neil Gaiman (Mirror Mask & Graveyard book) with a dash of my other favorite magazine, National Geographic. All lent/given to me by friends. How much luckier could I be?

Wouldn't you agree that I had a great day? :)
