A Whale of a Time

Good morning !ooorr maybe it's a later time where you are... sooo Good Day!,

I am awake early looking out over the ocean and mountains from the 19th floor condo we are lucky enough to be staying in. It is so very beautiful in Vancouver. Last night we had an incredible time performing at the Vancouver Aquarium. The evening was called: Dreamnight. It is a yearly event for the patients and families of BC Children's Hospital, Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children, Make a Wish Foundation, Ronald McDonald House, and Canuck Place Children's Hospice. We performed with Bob's and Lolo. They are a fantastic group out of Vancouver who perform music all about Nature, and especially about creatures in the ocean. Which was perfect for the aquarium!! It was an amazing evening to be a part of.
We performed right in front of the Beluga Whales. I am absolutely in love with them. They are so very cute and blubbery. I think this guy is smiling at us,.....

We also saw many other creatures..Jellyfish:


Otters: (awww..look at the way their paws are folded on their tummy's)


Scary Fish:


Harry met some fish:

and found a long lost relative..:


After the shows we got a behind the scenes tour of the aquarium. We even got to touch a pink starfish!
Thank you so much to the staff of the aquarium and Bobs and Lolo. It was great to meet all of you who were there. We can't wait to see you again sometime.
On Friday we are off to Vancouver Island for 2 performances...looking forward to the ferry ride! Today we are heading into Stanley Park then having a dinner out to celebrate Nick's Birthday! Talk to you soon
Love,
Taes and Nick

Thanks for the show -- we were there, my 2 year old daughter especially could hardly take her eyes off the stage.
