Karina, thanks for making some space for DS at the library. I love libraries, I love Vancouver, so it will be great to have a little piece of me at that particular nexus…

I asked my wife, “What’s the best coffee you’ve had in Vancouver as far as taste goes?” and she immediately replied, “Artigiano.” Their Hastings location isn’t that bad to hang out in, either. The one across from the Vancouver Art Gallery is pretty crowded, so it’s mostly in-and-out. Now, I’m trying to think what the best coffeehouse would be… I usually loiter Melriches on Davie St. or JJ Bean on Main St. (or also the one one Commercial Dr.). It depends on what you dig. Cafe Deux Soleils hosts poetry slams and such, serves good sandwiches and veggie burgers, beer, etc.

Oh, and if you’re here on July 2nd, you may as well grab some tickets for the True Colors Tour with Cyndi Lauper, Rosie O’Donnell, Regina Spektor, Indigo Girls, and so on.

@ karina; I’ll be in Vancouver next week to walk with new friends and do some solo hanging out in the best cafe or coffeehouse I can find. Recommendations? Want to meet and discuss Dangerous Space?
