A quintessential Vancouverite dinner, Japadog. If you don’t know what that is, all you need to know is in the name! 🇯🇵🌭
The British Columbia election results are so ridiculously close that, for the second time since we moved here, we are reminded that every vote counts. I guess we are headed to an NDP+Green government, which is good I guess, it’s nice the see the Green party having some power.
