Week Thirty-One

Please note photos have been removed due to lack of hosting space. 

The weather has been pretty sweltering here so I’ve been keeping in the shade as much as possible. I spent much of the last week on Bowen Island, so have some random pics of the scenery out there:

Week Thirty

Please note photos have been removed due to lack of hosting space. 

Not a lot been going on this week. The weather has been ridiculously hot for most of the week, though we finally had some rain over the weekend which has hopefully helped quell some of the 400 wildfires currently blazing in British Columbia. I did take a few photos of the haze that fell over Vancouver the other day though, as you can see below.

Till next week…

Week Twenty-Nine

Please note photos have been removed due to lack of hosting space. 

I’ve been a bit busier this week, and I actually do have photos to share. No news on the job front, except from an interview last week that I’m still waiting to hear if it develops into anything. It’s a long holiday weekend here at the moment so nothing may turn up till the middle of next week anyway.

So, I took to wandering around Stanley Park one day. I have done the walk around the seawall but I haven’t actually gone inside the park much, except to go to the Aquarium, so I took a wander around and went to visit the Rose Garden.

Week Twenty-Eight

Well it seems another week has gone by and I don’t have any pictures to show for it. Lots of jobs applied to but still no responses. I have however seen the new movie Inception twice now which is at least a change of pace. It’s a fabulous movie and if you haven’t already seen it I urge you to do so.

So, till next week…

Week Twenty-Seven

Please note photos have been removed due to lack of hosting space.

I’m a little late this week as the photo uploading hasn’t been working for me. Everything seems okay now though.

So, still no news on the job front, though I did take advantage of the lovely weather this weekend to tick off a few more places from my must-see list. The first was Queen Elizabeth Park – a beautiful park full of flowers and trees from all over Canada and beyond and since it is the highest land point in Vancouver it also has spectacular views of the city.

Week Twenty-Six

Please note photos have been removed due to lack of hosting space. 

Not a lot been going on here. The weather has been glorious, if a little too hot for my tastes! so in between walking the streets dropping off resumes I have managed some trips to the beach – pics below.

Week Twenty-Five

Please note photos have been removed due to lack of hosting space. 

I was without internet for most of last week, which is why I skipped posting last Sunday. There has been quite a bit going on, though not much in the job line.

There was Greek Day, in my Kitsilano neighbourhood – a celebration of all things Greek with delicious food on offer, musical performances, craft stalls and people in costume, like those below:

Week Twenty-Three

Please note photos have been removed due to lack of hosting space. 

Not a lot going on again this week. My temping job finished on Friday, so I need to start looking for another one, or follow-up on some other options. The weather *was* delightful for a time, but has turned cold and overcast today. However, I did take some nice shots of the area around Vancouver where I had been working. I really never get tired of seeing this view.

Week Twenty-Two

Please note photos have been removed due to lack of hosting space. 

There hasn’t been a lot going on this week aside from work – temping in an office job which seems to be going well at the moment – and the sun finally having made an appearance this weekend. So a very short post today, but I leave you with a picture of the view from my balcony this afternoon:

Week Twenty-One

Please note photos have been removed due to lack of hosting space.

There wasn’t a great deal going on last week. Job-hunting of course – and I started a new temp job this week – and visiting Bowen Island. I did take some applications outside and filled them in on top of hill near the beach, so those are the first pics, and then some from Bowen – including a snake that was just lying on the ground and then started to move as I took a photo.
