Live Life Like There Is No Tomorrow ...

Well the first adventurous moment to my expedition started out in battle as I attended the World Wide Pillow Fight Club 2.0 at Robson Square, downtown Vancouver, British Columbia. I started my day pretty early, which was remarkable since I didn't get to sleep till 5 am after Wreck Beach last night. Figuring out the Public Transportation system was easier than I thought it would be, as Vancouver really has their system setup well. After some chai for an energy boost, my friend Lori arrived and we started scoping out Robson Square and figuring out our battle plans. Some friends joined us as we were soon to embark upon the World Wide Pillow Fight happening between 3:00 and 3:15 pm in front of the Art Gallery on Robson. My friend Stephanie was enroute too.

Every year, across the globe, another fun flash mob meets for 15 minutes, in one of the most busiest and crowded locations downtown of most major cities to all of a sudden pull out pillows and dive into a large-scale, mass mob, pillow fight! This year I attended Vancouver's Pillow Fight Club 2.0 ... and it was a splendid fluff-puffing-powing event. What an interesting way of meeting people and pillow-pow'ing your friends! At first Robson Street steps of the Art Gallery was pretty bare, by 2:50 a crowd started filling in the sidewalk and steps, with most of the people candidly hiding their pillows, and at 3 pm, the fight began - pillows manifested from out of nowhere and before feathers were flying everywhere. A mouth full of feathers later ... frazzled hair ... and feather-dusted lint all over our clothes, it was time for bubble tea. Rating 5 stars out of 5. Fabulous time! Thanks everyone who made it happen! I'm amazed I got the pictures I did, I lost my camera twice, and both time caught it before it hit the pavement ... lucky! whew!
