settling into Canada again

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Vancouver, 2001.05.24

Here are some familiar things I've re-discovered since I've returned to Canada:

-People wearing sneakers

-Crowded shopping malls and restaurants the smell of temperate N. American flowers

-the many 'homeless' folks on the streets

-hotdog vendors

-no little sushi bars
