There are huge gaps in that timeline. This is mostly meant to be a place to lay down the things that must happen at particular times, and which I cannot miss.
Surely it would be better to just let some things fall out howsoever they do. It seemed to work well for you in Ireland, and you actually know people in Vancouver.
Have you decided on a concert to attend yet?
Anonymous,
No, I haven’t. I am counting on being able to find something good on the basis of information from friends, during the period when I am over there,
It is that time of year again & the beer fest (technically, the Brewmasters Festival) is happening next week. It is in BC Place next Friday & costs $25 per ticket, plus you’ll have to buy extra samples. See http://www.autumnbrewfest.com/
Now, that might sound like a lot of money, but there are breweries from all over the province who bring excellent beers that you will NEVER find outside the festival (trust me, I’ve tried).
Never had a blackcurrant lambic? Come to the beer festival!
Dying to try some pumpkin ale (there were 2 types last year)? Come to the beer festival!
Wanna taste a double chocolate porter with chilli? You probably get the idea at this point.
I shall be buying my ticket from Ticketmaster at UBC. If you want a ticket or several and would like me to get them for you then let me know. Otherwise, be warned that tickets at $35 at the door.
