Vancouver!

I love being on the west coast! It seems like every time I come here in the summer, the weather is absolutely perfect. Kacie and I played in a 2-day tournament at Kitsilano Beach last weekend. We played a total of 7 exciting matches and ended up coming in 4th out of 32 teams. As usual, we had a lot of fun playing some of the top teams in the country. (Jamie and Liz, the tournament champs, are off to Korea to represent Canada in a couple of invitational tournaments. Best of luck girls!!). We will see most of the other teams in Kelowna for another big tournament next weekend.
Our stay in Vancouver was made possible thanks to the generosity of Kri's family (Kri was my roommate for 4 years at UofT). Her parents treated us like their own kids by letting us take over their house and even borrow their car to get to the beach. They also came to cheer for us while we competed, and even took care of me while I came down with strep throat!! I can't thank Julie, Blair and Pat enough (and Amy and Kri for letting us stay in your rooms!). You guys have been more than amazing.
I'd also like to thank Blair for taking pictures on the weekend! Here are a few:
