At the end of the week I received a lovely care package in the mail from one of my good friends back in Virginia, complete with tea and other little goodies. I also received my Yelp elite welcome package, which was nicer than I expected - sunglasses, playing cards, lip balm, fingerless gloves, etc. Friday, I also got paid to teach a corporate group the basics of ultimate frisbee, so that's always good. Little happy surprises were a great way to end a week that was a little rockier at the beginning.
Saturday we went to a delicious brunch at our friends' new apartment. We caught up with some frisbee friends, some we hadn't seen in weeks or months. Since the hosts were Canadian, there were authentic crepes and maple syrup, for the win! Afterwards we walked over to Bronte Beach where the boys swam and the girls sat and chatted because it was too cold to swim. We also got to see some strangers get married.
In the evening we saw a free Angus and Julia Stone concert in the Domain, as part of the Spectrum Now Festival. We had never heard of this festival until the last night, where we discovered that it is essentially a random festival with no common theme. It was nice enough for free entertainment and we all crashed relatively early after a long day that was not particularly taxing.
