My wonderful bro works at the Vancouver Island Brewery, and every Xmas time they release this wonderful beer. It is 9.5 % and tastes so delicious. I wish I had one right now…..

In general it is a bad idea to bring cameras down to wreck, I have seen a few cameras end up in the ocean. And as much as I would love to take some photos of the beach, I enjoy the fact that they aren’t allowed. Ha, I think this one was okay though as there is snow on the beach!

Once I got back home from England, I needed a job. Me and Jo, both got job’s at Victoria’s newest pub, The Irish Times. It was a pretty awesome place with gold plated taps and over 30 beers on tap. Great pub, I only wish I spent more time there drinking rather than working.

Probably the funnest day I had in Derby was when England won the Rugby World Cup. The game started at 10am and the pub was FULL. We even got Daz’s dad to come down to the pub with us. We started drinking early and the day just got better and better. After the win Daz wanted to crash the local Aussie pub to do some rubbing in. I am mostly just a huge fan of the chants. Goooo Johnny Johnny, Johnny Johnny Johnny Johnny Wilkinson. Ha this one is not to original, but still fun. My ultimate favourite though has to be….Get your shit stars, get your shit stars, get your shit stars off our flag!

After leaving London, I went to Derby to visit my friend Daz. Everyone asked why I ended up staying in Derby?? But good friends = good times, so I stayed in Derby for a couple months. This was one of the pubs that we went to frequently, but apparently it is all boarded up….too bad.

I went to visit my friend Sjoerd in Amersfoort. It was such a great weekend, spent at the local football field, with games and beers. It was awesome because pretty much the whole town of Amersfoort came down to watch the football. I really wish we had that here.
Did I mention that I love Holland! This brewery was one of the funnest things to do while visiting Amsterdam. It had beer, games, rides, beer…soo perfect.
