Ibiza Blues

Although I'm a little blue about our Stanley Cup loss*, I had no blue feelings about being in Ibiza. In fact, I loved it! It's not just a party island; it's a gorgeous Mediterranean getaway! One thing I noticed while I was there, was the colour blue. It's everywhere! Take a look at these Ibiza blues...

*I must say here to anyone & everyone who is not from Vancouver & heard about the riots that occurred after our team lost: those people who caused & started any and all trouble are not Canucks fans & are not examples of Vancouver & it's people. I know that the majority of Vancouverites & true Canucks fans are ashamed & completely disgusted with the premeditated actions of the few. As Lights tweeted: "I should note that Vancouver is an incredible city with incredible people! It's just life how a few idiots ruin it for everyone."

Thank you to anyone who took the time to read this commentary. Even if it's a small number of you, I feel comforted knowing that there are a few more people out there who know how we are really feeling here in Vancouver. The very next day, hundreds of true fans came back to clean up the mess.

Playoff Makeup by Jessica W.N.

I have lots of pictures from my recent trip to Spain to share but they need some organizing! For now, let me share something about my hometown with you: this is a hockey town. Love for our team, the Vancouver Canucks, spreads far and wide, appearing all over the city in the form of jerseys as everyday wear, flags streaming from car windows, cars painted in Canucks logos, giant inflatable Orca whales strapped to a van roof, the green men*... and makeup? YES! Makeup for all the female fans who can't grow a playoff beard (very strange tradition, yes). Check out this fun and sporty look from my dear Jessica W.N



*These are the green men. Obnoxious little buggers aren't they!P.s. If you're not a Canucks fan, be bold and sport the look! ;)
