TGIF! What are you upto this weekend?

I am slightly tired albiet in a good mood. 

It's Friday folks! :-)

The morning weather is just gloomy and drizzly, and along with the rest of Vancouver I am anticipating the better weather that TWN promised later in the afternoon lol.

We have been promised good weather for the weekend of course, and with that comes events in and around town!

Celebration of Light 2010: Are you prepared!?

Today is the much anticipated fireworks day.  The Celebration of Light is a 4 show fireworks display that spans over 2 weeks, every wednesdays and saturdays done over English Bay, starting at 10:15pm sharp; just long enough for daylight to subside.  3 countries compete for sky supremacy and creative light-show prowess.  The winner is usually announced on the last saturday, and does a encore mini of the show they previously performed.

I used to live for this event...going to the beach with friends and relaxing while waiting for the fireworks to start..If we decided to go on a saturday, it would be a day at the beach, which usually wears me out but good.  Going to a few of these myself, I thought I'd share what I've found to help curb the boredom, heatstroke and generally be problem-free!
