Day 9

Sorry. Yesterday I forgot to write in my diary. Today I'm gonna write 2 times: one time to speak about yesterday and another one to speak about today. It's good, becuase now I have the oportunity to write in past simple ;)

Yesterday, such as I do on Saturday, I stood at home. I went to have my lunch with my new korean homemate. After that, I saw another movie in english: Billy Elliot. It was a little harder than Minority Report, because this one had more dialogues, but I understood it quite well. For dinner, Jun cooked korean food and I liked it.

It is all I did yesterday. I think it's not enough for my diary, then I'm gonna tell you some curiosities about Vancouver:
- When you go to eat something to a restaurant, you have to pay your drink, but the water is free. You can drink all the water you want.
- They don't include taxes in the prices. If you see something whose cost is 1.99, possibly you must pay about 2.18$ to buy it.
- There are a lot of homeless; more than I expected. Overall in Hastings Street.
- People in Vancouver eat less fast food than I thought. Sometimes for lunch they eat a sandwich either a hamburguer, but they frequently cook
for dinner.
- There is no only one color for taxis, such as in Zaragoza (white) or New York (yellow). Each company has her own color.

If I discover (or remember) more curiosities about Vancouver, I will tell you another day.
