happy 2011!

Happy new year! Haven't posted in a while; travel, moving, and work have kept me extreemely busy. I had the chance to go back to Canada for 3 weeks during the holidays. In summary: plenty of awesome quebecois and canadian beers (missed those flavors), back-country skiing, daily winter spa sessions, hiking in the snow near quebec city, quick trip to the USA to meet some family, then standby hell in Vancouver.

Day of the Dead

We got together for some mexican food and heaps of beer last weekend with the coolest workmates. What wasn't cool was the keg, temperature wise of coarse. How long does a keg stay warm in the australian sun? With a little backup, all day...

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRR!

Quesadillas, tamales, guacamole, piñata, yuuuuuuuummy!

Hilarity ensues after 7 hours of drinking canadian-style beer in australian-style sun, as you can immagine.

FIRE IN THE HOLE!
