Well, it’s been almost 2 weeks since my last report. Which effectively illustrates the “almost” part of the Weekly Report. Once again the two main factors for my failure to post anything has been due to my busyness and the lack of internet access I have.

Flipping PancakesRight now, I’m writing to the cyber world via my Parent’s house in Duncan, BC. I made the trip down yesterday after dropping a friend off at the ferry in Nanaimo. It is nice to have a break, last week was a whirlwind. The church helped out with the canada day celebrations, so in the morning I was up at 8:00 getting ready to flip pancakes, then at 10:00 it was off to put together a float for the church, then the parade, then a brief break, then we had a community barbeque at which we fed about 200 people. It was lots of fun.

We finished the night off by getting together to watch the Movie ‘the burbs’. And let me say, it was quite the cultural experience. I’ve never watched the movie before and I was watching it with people who had watched the movie hundreds of times. So rather than having an instant replay, I had an instant preview of what was to come in the movie. This was because the people on either side of me were on the edge of their seat with expectation of what the next line was in the movie.

The most exciting part of the day was when I got to go for a ride on a Coast Guard zodiac. I had always dreamed of riding on one and seeing how fast it could go. It was an absolutely thrilling experience, so as a result, I just had to film it with my camera. Check out the video on youTube here: Canada Coast Guard Ride
