Adventures in Vancouver - mid-week edition

I know, we never mentioned it before this but we're spending this week in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Being fangirls, stalking hanging out with actors we know, touring filming locations around the area from various things, etc. GOOD EFFING TIMES LIKE WHOA.



So far, we've seen these places:

SMALLVILLE: Kent farm, Clova ("Talon") theater, various other by default, as we wandered the town of Cloverdale, aka "Smallville."

SUPERNATURAL: Diners used in Fort Langley, Mt. Seymour forest roads.

DEAD ZONE: Riverview Hospital, current campus - used as the convalescence home in pilot.

X-FILES: Skinner's apartment, Scully's apartment, Ovaltine Cafe, Plaza of Nations, Mt. Seymour, the former location of the skating rink the Gunmen used. Various other, probably.

~*~ TIN MAN: DG's diner, the hedge maze. I AM NOT KIDDING, I AM SO FULL OF SQUEE. ~*~

Still more planned - tomorrow, White Rock and "Psych" locations a-plenty, plus another try at the Riverview Hospital site (some film crew was working the location when we tried the other day).

PEOPLE WE'VE HUNG WITH (see IMDB):

Michael Roberds toured us around Smallville and Tin Man sites. We love him so hard.

Bruce Harwood - four hours of awesome good times with him, more on Saturday. ~squee~

MORE TO COME! With PICTURES! SO MANY PICTURES!!!!!!!!!!

HEHEE! Wish you were here, sweetie. *HUGS* Today we get more Mike and Lance, too. Touring White Rock with the boys. :D

Yeah, we need to have an LGM con again someday. \o/

AAAHHHHH! LANCE! *kermitflail*

YES! Lance was awesome. We drove around and toured White Rock and Surrey, talked X-Files and assorted other things. Made fun of Canadian accents. Saw where he worked when we went to drop him off again. Good times! \o/

Oh, yeah! And our friend is absolutely loving getting to meet Bruce and spend so much time with him. Byers is her favorite Gunman. In fact, when we got back to our hotel tonight she had to watch "Three of a Kind" in preparation for more Bruce tomorrow. :D (As we all know, actors need the occasional, or frequent, ego boost. *grin*)

Aww. Yes. Yes, they do.

Yes, yes I did need to watch 3 of a Kind! It's the best one AND we got some good gossip out of that.

So I rock. :P

Bruce lived up to all my expectations. I wanna go back for more coffee, T, whatever!

Kick-ass icon Erynn, I'm totally stealing it!
