update from Vancouver. Visa etc.

Just a quick update on whats up.

First my visa -

well the postal strike has really slowed this whole thing down (well postal lockout, but you know what I mean). I had planned on 5 weeks and it would have worked if it weren't for those pesky postal workers and management. My CRC arrived in the mail three weeks late and so even though I'm supposed to be in Korea today, I'll be in Vancouver at least another week. While I'm happy to have this extra time here the fact is that I need to be making money and my school is waiting for me to arrive (the last teacher has left already). My plan now is to get it next Tuesday or Wed and fly out the next day. However, being that I have extra time I'm hoping to relax and enjoy life here before I'm back to the grind.

In other news, Vancouver had a riot after the hockey team lost. I've managed to see friends, family an old prof and enjoy Canada. I'll do proper blogs on all of it later.

Time to enjoy this Vancouver "summer".
