Family decided to take my cousins on a trip since Seattle was getting a bit old. Since it was only a 2 hour drive, we went on a little adventure through Britich Columbia, Canada.
I forgot to take a picture when we ate Dim Sum in Richmond.
We went to Queen Elizabeth Park and ate some fruits and the left overs after shopping through Japan, Indian, and China town. I saw a dried lizard in a Chinese medicine shop.
I think I shouldn't have scared my grandma because she didn't let me buy it. The shop ladies and customers had a good laugh from her reaction and my immaturity.
Me: Hey! Grandma, I found something pretty cool.
Grandma: What is it?
Me: LOOK! Lizard! -shoves said dried critter towards her face-
Grandma: JSLDZ MY GOD! You're mental! Get that away from me!
Me: Can I have my wallet?
Grandma: NO.
Me: It's dead and harmless, grandma. I wanna buy it. Come on, touch it onceeee.
Grandma: GKDSJ MY GOD! NO. GET AWAY FROM ME, YOU SH*T. PUT IT DOWN. You really do want me to die early! You're ungrateful!
At least I made their day. I wanted to scare my mom, but she ended up disappearing off to somewhere. It's rude to scare guests, so my cousin got a free pass.
"Kimchi Dog"We also explored through the aquarium located in Stanely Park and eventually went to the Summer Night-Market. We ate some takoyaki, grilled corn, banana sticky-rice w/coconut milk, squid kabobs, fried spring rolls, and drank some bubble tea.
I had the kimchi dog; a bit too sweet for my liking. Only time it was spicy was when a piece was lodged somewhere in my throat.
Was too full to try the Thai and Japanese dog afterwards. It looked good too. Maybe (hopefully) in the future.
"Fried Spring Rolls w/ Sweet-Sour Chili Sauce"
"Banana Sticky-Rice w/ Coconut Milk"Looks like a fancy, deep-fried twinkie with icing, eh? :D
"Takoyaki"Seems empty since I ate a couple with the nephew before remembering to snapshot it.
I didn't get a chance to buy some fried potato flakes and fried cheesecake. The lines were ridiculously long. Basically, if you made it out of the mob, you have the right to brag about it.
→ On the highway to the border, she talks about the GPS.
GPS: Turn left in 300 feet.
Her: Wow! She talks a lot! She's very good. How do you get the job?
Her daughter: What job?
Her: Job to talk like that. She must make lots of money!
Daughter: Mommy! What the hell! It's a computer!
Her: Oooooh!!! Is there a man one? That will be very cool!
Her daughter's boyfriend: Actually, there is a man voice installed too.
Her: Ohhh, that is nice! I bet he get paid lots too!
→ At the aquarium in front of the beluga tank. There are facts about the whale displayed on the computer screen, near the top.
Her: Look! Read up there. They're showing words of what the fish is talking about!
Her daughter: They're talking about the fish! It's not the whales talking!
Her: Ohhh. Hahaha! Woops!
Daughter: Oh my god, mom.
→ Heading home. In the car, after we took a shortcut through the railroads to the parking lot. Didn't know about it and took the long route to the market.
Her: We took the shortcut? Did you know about it?
Me: Nah. We found out after seeing a bunch of people heading from that way.
Great Uncle: Too bad we didn't find out earlier. It was a long walk there.
Her: Yes. The longcut was very long.
Her daughter: What the hell, mommy?! Longcut?!
Daughter's boyfriend: Haha! She invented another word. It's the "long way."
Her: Hoho! Okay. Haha! I said "longcut!" Supposed to be "long way!" Is it "shortcut" or "short way?"
Daughter: It can be either! You're so weird!
Her: Mommy like daughter!
