Still Hanging with Alma & Fred

It was the last day for Fred and Alma to run a few errands in town, so we were out and about again. First we dropped by Sweet William's Dessert Shop. Thanks to Jennifer (one of my agents at Keystone Extras), we found out that this place makes pavlova too. But we had to admit, the ones from Sweet Carrie's are better. Then we stopped by this place on Robson Street to buy some Pocky for Alma and Fred's friends in High Prarie.  These treats aren't available up there. The two of us also tried the crepes they were serving here. Alma and Fred crossing Robson Street...
Check out the line-up for... JAPADOG!!! I heard so much of this hot dog stand, I thought I'd experience it for the first time with this couple. Fred paid for everything though. There it is! Their Terimayo sauce totally rocks!  This is definitely going to be a regular stop for me. Our last errand was to find a dolphin keychain for Alma's friend, so we went to the Vancouver Aquarium's souvenir store.  But all the keychains we found looked so flimsy and expensive, so she didn't getting any. "Mmmnnnhuuunnn..." Some more sightseeing at Stanley Park, but in the day this time... A silhouette of two BFFs? Fred...

Another silhouette shot...
These shots were taken by Alma.
Fred and Alma, the habitants of High Prarie...
"Yeah, baby!!!"
We dropped Fred off at the hotel, so he could watch his Flames lose.  Then Alma and I took the car to attend the MOMMIETRON's church's banquet.

A vegetarian's feast... I'm missing Dr. Kleider's cooking right about now. Time for some presentations... A lot of Filipinos here! Brother Greg and Sister Phoebe... "Eat Alma, Eat." An impressive musical performance with bamboo instruments... "More, more!!!" demanded the MOMMIETRON, after the number.  Here's wishing Alma and Fred a safe trip home.  It definitely was fun having you guys back in our city!!!
