But back to now. Tomorrow is my favorite day next to Christmas Day. Canada Day is the big day to show your off your Canadian pride big time.
And if you do, and are covered from head to toe in red and white, you can get the 2 for 1 special on all fares at Aquabus.
Will and Kate, the future King and Queen in the old country, are visiting Canada right now. Why they're not going further west than Calgary I don`t know.
But Kate looks stunning as this picture shows, when they were in Ottawa.
I also had the pleasure to meet a member of our own Royal family last week!
My friend Kat Thorsen had a fund raising night at District 319 - a beautifully restored Chinese theater at Main and Cordova downtown. The Vancouver Friends for Life society cares for people with life threatening problems.
Kat drew poster size sketches of prominent gay personalities and then invited the invited audience to finish them off. They were then auctioned off to funds for the Vancouver Friends for Life society. They cares for people with life threatening problems.
It was a great night, full of fun and laughs with many of the personalities there in person on the night.

One of the gathered personalities was the lovely Charmaine Crooks! A one time member of the International Olympic Committee, she was part of the team which secured the Vancouver bid for the 2010 Winter Olympics.
I was very touched when she thanked me for working at Aquabus during the games and helping visitors to our great city. A true lady!
Happy Canada Day people! See you at the Aquabus dock tomorrow! Its going to be a mad day and even madder when I see Britney Spears tomorrow night! Can`t wait!
In the meantime,
peaacccceeeee out sisters
