What a weekend!

We went to Canada over the weekend. We headed over to Richmond after work and got there in good time. After a quick feeding, we headed over to the Night Market in Richmond. At first we were worried that there wasn't going to be a lot of people there but once we got near, there were a ton of people everywhere. It was a bit like Bite of Seattle but with way more Asians. We tried lots of Yakitoris. I liked the Osaka balls the most.

Here are the boys still asleep.

Once we got back, it was close to midnight and Ely konk'd out until 2am.


On Saturday we had din sum for brunch (yum!). Ely watched people and kept amused. After eating lots of din sum we walked it off at downtown Vancouver. I carried Ely in the Ergo and tried to shop while he cried. He fell asleep eventually and I was able to get some shopping done. While we were resting at a coffee shop, a fire truck went roaring by. Ely woke up startled and had the biggest wide eyes. It was pretty funny. Luckily he was tired enough that he fell asleep again.

After we walked off the din sum we headed over to our 5pm reservation at Shabusen. Ely slept through the dinner and let us enjoy our dinner. Of course Sung and I tried to get our money's worth and ended up eating way too much. We swore off eating at Shabusen again. It was just so much food.

On Sunday we ate at Hon's Noodle House. They make there own noodles there. The crispy noodle was really fresh...and sooooo crunchy. Yum! After another quick shopping and a stop at the pastry shop, we headed home.

The drive wasn't bad at all. The wait at the border was just about an hour and the drive back home was nice. We were greeted by a small hail storm once we got near our home. Hail storm in the middle of summer? Luckily the weather was very nice in Canada and we had lots of fun there.

Ely's first trip out of the country went very well. :) 4 1/2 months old and he's already been to Canada!
