Greater Vancouver Zoo

Last week me and bf went to the zoo in Aldergrove. It was my first time going there I believe. I don't know if I went when I was younger but, I definitely don't remember if I did or did not go. We got there later in the day so we weren't able to see any shows like live feeding or petting of the animals. I thought there wasn't much to see but to my surprised there were more animals then I thought there would be. I enjoyed the nice walk and looking around to see different animals from different parts of the world. My favourite was the donkey, monkeys, giraffes and the lions. Overall, it was a nice and sunny day to spend my time at the zoo.


the ostrich were enjoying our company while we stared at the them with awe

Golden Ears Bridge

Last saturday, me, bf, Hanz and Rachel ran the Golden Ears Bridge (the bridge that connects from Pitt Meadows to Langley). It was about a 10K run from the edge of Maple Ridge to the end of the bridge and back. At first I thought it wasn't going to be that bad but the after effects was unexpected...my legs are sore, when I cough my abs hurt. But, it was worth it to run across it cause it felt like I achieved something...my goal is to run all the bridges around the lower mainland and maybe next year do the Sun Run. Afterwards, we had a bbq at bf's house we marinated some pork ribs and we made some meat sticks and kabobs. Not bad for less then half day to marinate the food since it was an impulse "let's do a bbq" idea. Afterwards, watched a funny zombie movie and then passed out. Whew! the sun totally drained me that day.
