::Andrea's Rambling Notes - once from Japan, now from Canada::
::Author::  Name::Andrea From::Small city/town, B.C., Canada I am a short girl from the west cost of BC, Canada and I am a proud Canadian. I went to Japan in 2000 because my Dad told me I would regret it for the rest of my life if I didn't. He was right. I lived a good life found my husband from the other side of the world and have a beautiful daughter. Basically we lead a pretty normal life filled with normal ups and downs. We both come from different cultures: me Canadian, him Chinese. Living in Japan was a real eye opener about who I am and about the people I associate myself with. I lived and loved in Japan but the time to move on came upon us and in May of 2006 we left and moved to Canada: a huge move for us all. We are now trying to start up again, remodel our lives and create our future for our family. I now feel like a tourist in the country of my birth, my eyes see different and my life will be forever changed. This blog is my notes and observations of our life, our changes, our adventures and new beginnings. Welcome. View my complete

Saturday, October 14, 2006 A day with the Fishes and the Goats Template is a gibbled - I know - but I dont know why. Need to work on this. I have been having problems with Blogger of late and am not sure what to do about it. One of my personal problems is that I just love this template so I am not sure what to do. Just to give you the heads up there will be some HUGE news on Monday so stay tuned - probably wont go up until late though because I have my midterm exam that I have to do first - eek! So today the weather held out - tomorrow will be bad. It was dads birthday today. We had dinner and a cake tonight. He had plans with my brother this afternoon so I headed out with ToddlerJi and my friend Cheri and had a LOVELY afternoon. First we went to the fish hatchery over near Hemlock Valley to see the spawning fish - very cool.  Photo Sharing - Upload Video - Video Sharing - Share Photos Their fins look like mini sharks in the water - it was kind of neat. I dont recal ever having been there before - maybe in elementary school - and I am glad I went. I have never seen salmon spawning before in real life (TV ya) and it was neat.  Photo Sharing - Upload Video - Video Sharing - Share Photos Got to see them jumping around as well. Then we decided to head over to the Kilby Museum and that was a real treat. The first thing I noticed was this tea canister that my mother had donated YEARS and YEARS ago. It is kind of weird - I know that I had been there before when I was a young kid but the only memory, and very clear memory, is of my mother giving them this tea pot to add to their collection. Too cool that it is still there. It is the Malkins Best tea, second from the right.  Photo Sharing - Upload Video - Video Sharing - Share Photos Then there were the animals that had ToddlerJi all giddy and loving every second of the museum. The Bronze turkeys that begged to be fed:  Photo Sharing - Upload Video - Video Sharing - Share Photos The bucked tooth goat:  Photo Sharing - Upload Video - Video Sharing - Share Photos The four pronged goat:  Photo Sharing - Upload Video - Video Sharing - Share Photos And the bunnies:  Photo Sharing - Upload Video - Video Sharing - Share Photos We fed them - of course.  Photo Sharing - Upload Video - Video Sharing - Share Photos This video is brilliant - it is of ToddlerJi feeding the goats and the turkeys. I love it!! After we went home and I had a pretty tired girl on my hands - grandpas birthday cake woke her up though.
