Day 1, Monday 31 July

This was the first day of our trip to Canada and USA. The plan was to get up at 6:30 but at 6:24 we got an SMS from Mattias mom so it was just to go up. About the flight to Vancouver via London there isn't much to say, it was long and boring and the entertainment system didn't work very well. But finally we arrived at the hotel in downtown Vancouver. After a short stop in our rooms to freshen up we went out and went to Steamworks Brewing Company at Water Streetvand had our first and much anticipated beer. I had a Nirvana Nut Brown Ale, I liked but the others didn't but at that point had probably any beer tasted good so maybe my judgment wasn't the best.
After some sightseeing we went to Yaletown Brewing Company to eat and taste their beers. There I had a Red Truck Ale. When we had eaten there wasn't any energy left, by that time we had been awake more than 24 hours, time for bed and the idea was to write this blog entry but there was some trouble with the internet access, that's why I'm writing this today and not yesterday.
