Uh Oh! Yodi's photo thread is closed - we need someone to add all these great new pictures to that thread as well!

Looks like she is having quite a blast! Love the Batman outfit!

That threads closed so that no one posts on there and there are just the posts from her visits. Wanted to have at least one thread of Yodi's that wasn't cluttered with ramblings.

Rambling? Who rambles?

Not me, I never ramble. I always stay on topic.

OMG! I love the pics and their commentary. They sure tell the story. Pichu is adorable too. Now the rest of us won't be the first to have little stinkers wanting to "attack"! LMBO

I am worn out just reading and looking at the pics. Great job

fasteddie · 06-05-2009, 10:00 AM

WOW! Great pictures and awesome storytelling! Yodi is totally being spoiled! What a lucky girl! The Batman outfit is too much!

And POUTINE? NO WAY! Mmmmm, poutine!

RachelGenson · 06-05-2009, 10:37 AM

Wow! Yodi looks like she is having a great time!!! Great Pictures. She looks sooo cute in her little batman outfit, love it!

And as you can see, we had killed just enough time to sneak in under the cover of darkness.

We are smart!

OMG....What a great shot of Yodi the Bat Girl - I love it!! You totally crack me up!!! Keep the camera rolling....

erickajm · 06-05-2009, 12:50 PM

I truly enjoyed looking and reading all those posts about Yodi's adventure in Vancouver. Even DH giggled at the majority of the pictures. Great job!

JMuedog · 06-05-2009, 08:12 PM

lol!!! That has got to be the cutest thing.. Yodi as an aspiring Batman!

I'm surprised i didn't see a couple BAMs, POWs, or KABOOMs! just for effect of course... if you never watched the old cartoons you'll have no clue to what i was just referring to.

Seriously, fantastic pictures so far! I'm still laughing so hard at them!

Of course I have watched them including the old live action TV series, however, I constantly keep getting reminded of my age as my brain rots further and memory cells are dying at a quicker rate than I can count! Besides, I'm not Batman--Yodi is. I believe she's too young to know about all that. ROFL

It used to be funny how in the television series, they'd put up the comic art to show those "special effects" LOL.

Miao · 06-06-2009, 01:28 AM

We had a fairly slow second day today. It's definitely not as hot as it was on arrival day. I think I was suffering a day-after heat stroke.

Yodi slept in longer than I was able to. As I got hungry for being up long hours, I just had to wake everyone up and get them ready for a lunch trip. For anyone who visits Richmond, they must not overlook one of the more popular Asian malls here known for its food court on the third floor. Within Aberdeen Centre Shopping Mall, it also houses several full sized restaurant set-ups.

Since my companion had a craving for Shanghai food as she claimed she hasn't had a Shanghai soup dumpling called "xiao long bao" since months back now, I thought it would be a good opportunity for Yodi to have a taste of what Vancouver is so good at--Asian cuisine. There are quite a few Shanghai restaurants in town, however, only less than a handful make a tasty soupy dumpling to my taste and who also makes most other dishes adequately well to not just be a one-dish stop.

Northern Delicacy is one of my top choices to visit when I have a craving for Shanghai soup dumplngs, Wonton & Chicken soup, hot soy soup with deep fried Chinese doughnuts and a lighter veggie version of a fried Shanghai rice cake (the one that isn't made with greasy soy sauce, etc.). I love how their menu is bilingual and plenty of pictures. Pictures prove to be ever so helpful especially since I'm not so sure Yodi is literate. I think she tweets with some kind of dictation software.

Miao · 06-06-2009, 01:44 AM

As it turned out, my brain wasn't functioning like normal so it had totally slipped my mind that we needed Yodi to dine with us incognito. So unlike the previous night when we had dinner, earlier, during lunch, we became a spectacle. We needed Yodi to pretend she was a stuffed toy. We almost couldn't carry it off. I believe we had left a little bit of doubt and disbelief amongst the crew working in that restaurant.

Yodi's Adventure Discussion Thread - YorkieTalk's Traveling Yorkie-2009-06-05-lunch4.jpg

As Yodi was musing over this plate of cold appetizer made up of marinated bean curd (I think) and few pieces of enoki mushrooms, my companion was starting to get nervous with the stares she's been noticing coming our way. That is when it hit me that we had forgotten Yodi's much needed borrowed superhero powers. Finally, I did note the gentleman circling our booth staring down at Yodi until he caught sight of me watching him obsessing over our tabletop dining guest. He's one of the store managers. He put a grin on his face of huge disbelief. I should have tested my innate super powers by chanting, "They can't see her. They can't see her. They can't see her." But too late, they saw her. This includes the dumpling masters working behind a transparent glass/plastic display window. Don't they have any work to do like making more dumplings for tomorrow?

It's rude to watch people eat--so what if we have a dog eating not just OFF the table but while sitting/standing on TOP of it too.

Miao · 06-06-2009, 01:54 AM

Yodi couldn't decide what to start on first. So I helped her out. After hand-feeding her some Spicy Wonton dumplings and a soup dumpling (I think the weekend crew is better at making this stuff though it was still alright today), I told her she'll need to eat the rest quickly on her own, and only do so when no one else is looking.

When I hailed for the cheque, the manager came along with it... He says to me, "That looks so real! I seriously thought it was real for a moment there!" I'm like, "No way. Really??" and just humoured him with a brief chuckle.

Phewww. They didn't find out that in fact Yodi was and is as real as they come!

Yodi must be gloating now.

Miao · 06-06-2009, 02:04 AM

We cruised around town a little bit but I really must have burnt all the sugar in my blood yesterday in the smoldering heat. I can barely function and lunch didn't help. So it was homeward bound for a nap and hopefully, a few chores, and of course, Pichu's much needed bath before her check-up scheduled for Saturday morning. This appointment was made before we knew of our special guest's arrival. Since Pichu is getting her nails done and ears cleaned tomorrow, I think we'll need to try to squeeze in a manicure for Yodi too! She'd really benefit from an ear cleaning. With all of Pichu's love nibbles, it wouldn't be a bad idea at all.

Of course, as soon as we got back and unloaded Yodi from her carrier, Pichu goes right after her. It's been a bit of an effort to keep Yodi out of sight of our little girl half the time so that we may have some peace and so that Yodi will be able to leave for her next destination in one piece!
