I Need a Vacation

by Vince on May 13, 2008

I went on vacation and now I am so tired and wore out and in need of solitude that it literally hurts. I need to go for a run and then jump on my bike and fly down some trails.

I did learn some things from this trip:

  • Relaxing for me is to hike 20 miles into the back country and not see anybody for 3 days
  • I love the ‘idea’ of going on a cruise, but the execution of it is just goes against everything in my being
  • Canadians are pretty cool people…and a little weird
  • Dragging a 5 and 3 year old into nice dining rooms for five days took 5 years off my life
  • Americans are fat. Vancouver has a healthy population

So the Marotte family will be sighted at a campground in the coming weeks getting some much needed R & R to recover from the vacation.

Vacation eh!

by Vince on May 11, 2008

So, Vancouver has been fun. Even though it was only a day and a half, we crammed in some fun. We head home in the morning, which will be a long day that starts on a 3 hour shuttle ride from Vancouver to Seattle before we hop on our plane back to SoCal.

Here are a few pics from Stanley Park:

I am trying to impart my love for nature on my kids. I think They are getting it.
