The California leg of the journey was wonderful as always. The famous Bay to Breakers race was on while I was there and while I did not take part, my Honey and I and a friend went to an after-party in the Haight-Ashbury area where we danced to some decent music and enjoyed the ample people-watching opportunities. Traditionally, those participants in the race who aren't hardcore runners will dress up in costume and compete for various prizes. They also tend to consume copious amounts of alcohol/drugs which makes them even more entertaining. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera with me so you'll just have to use your imagination.
My Honey and I flew together to Edmonton on Wednesday to join several friends (and even more complete strangers) in celebrating the wedding of Howard and Laura on Saturday. We were meeting the bride for the first time and she is a wonderful, beautiful person who is clearly smitten with our friend Howard. Laura is Mexican and Howard is Chinese so it was a colourful, interesting and multicultural event. I've posted a few pictures from the ceremony over at my photoblog and there will be more to follow, including some taken at the reception which came after a traditional ten-course Chinese wedding banquet. All together I took over 500 pictures but clearly they didn't all make the cut. I will however leave you with this gem:
