Today we travelled to Surrey to renew our Canadian Passports.
They've moved offices since our visit 5 years ago, which, if I'da been on the ball, would have noticed, but didn't. Suffice it to say, after a few twists and turns, a false parking and back into the car, we found the Passport Office in the Surrey Place Mall of all places.
The joint was jumpin' since it was lunch time and a Friday. As it happened, it didn't take very long, we had a very nice person working at the desk, and after confirming this, that, and the other, we paid our money and we were done!
Nextus up, our Nexus Pass!
On the way we drove past Flag Motors on 104. This flag post was originally situated at Expo 67 in Vancouver. The flag is so immense that when the sun shines, it casts a huge shadow over the hotel across the street. It's wonderful to see as it furls and unfurls almost in slow motion because of its' size.
Our Number.
That's Us!
Back home we go.
An Interesting tidbit: This flag as I've said is so large, and so high up, when we drive down 200th in Langley, on a clear day you can see this flag. That is quite a distance away.
To sum it up. With all its' warts and wrinkles, I am very proud to be living in this country. I.Am.Canadian. I brandish it proudly on my walking jacket.
Happy Friday!
