Derek and I had a much needed weekend away....I have not had vacation since August and needed a few days away from the office, plus Derek leaves for training at his new job today, so it was the perfect opportunity for us to spend some quality time together.
We decided for a little adventure to take the train! It left at 8:07 Friday morning and we got to Vancouver at around 11:30am. I have to say....I LOVED taking the train! Crossing the border was a piece of cake, we sat and played cards almost the entire time. The best part about it was that since I have to pee every 10 seconds we didn't have to pull over to use the bathroom!
Above is the train station in Edmonds, below is the one in Vancouver. From the station below, we walked across the street and caught the Vancouver Sky Train (aka subway) and it took us to a stop right across the street from the Hyatt where we stayed (for free...neener neener!)
Below is us on the train...I look terrible, but this is where we spen the majority of our trip...in the diner car playing cards.
We didn't do a whole lot while we were up there, we walked around and saw the sites, we went and saw a movie on Saturday. We really just enjoyed spending time together. Below is Derek drinking for the 2 of us....a long island iced tea "fish bowl"! Happy hour special!
Here is me getting on the train to head home.
