<p>On the first morning of our New York 2019 trip (yes, that's how far behind I am in the backlog), we got up at 5:05am, got ready, and left at 6:37am.  We took the streetcar to the subway to Union Station, and jogged to the You-Urinate Express train - I say that because I pronounce it &quot;You-pee express&quot;, not &quot;Up express.&quot;<br />
<br />
Anyway, it was comfortable and quick, and we got to the airport at 7:40am, got through the customs line an hour later, and eventually got on the plane.  There was a weather delay at LaGuardia, even though the weather in Toronto was fine, so we had to wait on the plane for a while before leaving.<br />

<p>It's always weird at these events that are so packed with youth, young adults, and adults all playing, laughing, running, dancing, worshiping and serving and also be so quiet. Moments of Liminality waiting for the impact.<br />

False Creek is a short inlet in the heart of Vancouver. It separates downtown from the rest of the city. It was named by George Henry Richards during his Hydrographic survey of 1856-63. George Richards named False Creek during his survey of the coast in the mid-19th century. While traveling along the south side of the Burrard Inlet, he thought he was traversing a creek; upon discovering his error, he gave the waterway its modern name.  Wikipedia<br />
