Dancing gestures I got back from spending this last weekend with the in-laws in Vancouver for a wedding of their family friends. Usually when I am with them, it usually ends up becoming a Chinese lesson with me providing the laughs as I struggle with my broken Cantonese. Here are some of the notes.
“Ah-Ma” (Polly) and “Low Dao” (Rex) enjoy some dessert after arriving on Thursday. 
Jason and Jackie, family friends, tie the knot. 
Jackie gives her vows to Jason. A couple more Jason sketches. 
Two attempts at Jackie. I think Jason was the first Mountie I’ve ever seen in person. 
Uncle Silas, a family friend, looks on. Ah-Ma and Low Dao watch the bouquet toss.

Auntie Jenny had some bananas in the car much to the chagrin of Olwen. A couple value studies inside Auntie Jenny’s house. “Fei suk-suk”, Auntie Jenny’s husband, takes an order at his restaurant.
