Graduation Dinner

Last weekend I flew to Edmonton to attend Emily's computer science graduation dinner. Considering my thesis is about to be submitted I decided to treat it as my own graduation dinner too. :)

We took a bunch of photos of our preparation, including photos of me helping to do Emily's hair. I have to admit, doing Emily's hair was a lot of fun. She and I might be able to mess more with her hair once she gets to Vancouver. :).

There's a few more lower-resolution photos on Facebook, plus hundreds posted by others who attended (a Facebook account is required to see all the photos of me and Emily). The dinner was decent, but the trip to the bar/club and to Boston Pizza (a relatively high class pizza and pasta place) was the real highlight. We were congratulated so many times by strangers who thought we'd just gotten married! Little wonder why. :)

That's the first time I've heard BP's as a high class place. Also in contradiction to that, I'm going to BP's tonight to watch UFC 83.

When I left Australia we'd just finished a pizza price war (seriously, try http://www.google.com/search?q=australia+pizza+price+war). You could get a good-tasting, family size pizza for under $8 easily, but very few people would eat pizza at a restaurant. From that perspective, BP is a "high class" pizza place. :)

By the way, if you were to rank pizzas in Australia in order of quality it'd be something like: Domino's, Eagle Boys, Pizza Hut, Pizza Haven. A bit different to Canada where Domino's is regarded as one of the lower quality pizzas.
