Better late than never? right?
Well... what can we say? It's been too long, we know. We've had a few small problems (converting the film to digital) and big problems (Julie moved to NORTH VAN?!??!!?) Amazing how two bridges can create such a distance between friends ...sigh... Then she went to South Africa, and I (Michelle) went to Japan. However, we are both back at our respective homes, and I've snagged some of the photos from Julie's camera to share with all of you.
Our fantastic reunion fell not only on Sea Cavalcade, but by chance on the hottest day of the summer. As well it was the last event The Club would have before shutting down. It was wonderful to have such a good group of positive people enjoying the company of old freinds. Even our crashers demonstrated the old Elphi spirit. Speaking of spirits, alcohol consumption was directly proportional to enjoyment levels... and much alcohol was consumed (it was Sea Cavalcade after all!)
We still have tonnes of photos to post; we'll compile the quality ones from the disposable cameras and put them up ASAP.
As promised there was mingling- here are the photos to prove it!
Leah, Alan, Charlotte and Nathan. Don't let Leah's face fool you, she was having fun. 
Told you so! Look at that smile.

Not to be confused with the notoriously exclusive Cedar Grove Alumni; Ben, Tracy, Janna and Maitreya.
See how they scoff as Luke attempts to join them!?

Adam is showing off his best snarl. I'm not sure if his girlfriend is amused... I like to think she is. 
Never one to be out-snarled, Tyler demonstrates his lip-curling skills.

Karen and I were too busy divining the ultimate drink to care about silly photos.
Luckily this photo was taken after I was sufficiently intoxicated. Normally, I don't talk to these girls when I'm sober. (I kid...I kid)

Mingling experts. Pop quiz which twin is Laurel and which is Andrea? (I'm actually asking... I need to caption this photo and don't want to get it wrong)

Luke, Tyler and Alan comparing shoulder width. Seriously though, Gibsons breeds some big boys!
_________________________________________________________
That's Ben Forsyth; he was a hit with the ladies. _________________________________________________________
Katherine telling Karen how she had "just a little bit" of wine before arriving.
Katherine, Tara and Luke discussing Katherine's wild times at Roberts Creek Elementary.
It looks like Luke has heard this story a few times.

Heather, Chad, Emily, Sarah and Amanda... serious gossip is being dished! _________________________________________________________
Maitreya and Emily. Is it just me, or does it look like Emily might be plotting something?
______________________________________________________________
After this picture was taken Chad bought me a drink. Somehow, it made me feel less violated

I don't know what the significance of the cheese is...
...but Emily found it very amusing. And Julie looks scared.
When we weren't mingling, we danced...
Julie kicked things off with an interpretive dance set to "Living on a Prayer"
Bon Jovi really gets her excited... Did she tell you she touched him? _________________________________________________________
Katherine--- well lets just admit it, looking stunning! <3 _________________________________________________________
Yes, we danced in a circle.
__________________________________________________________ 
The ladies enjoyed line dancing almost as much as they enjoyed Ben. Almost...
_________________________________________________________
And Chad and I took the slow dance back to '91, and nobody cared to join us. Awkward.
We couldn't do this post without acknowledging the drunken riff-raff that joined us. Also known as the reunion crashers. Here are a few photos of some people that we really don't know... but I do know, that they liked Katherine.
All in all, the night was not only fun, it was full of love. Some people brought significant others, while some just rekindled old friendships.
Maryanne, Adam's girlfriend (send me her name, I'll put it in) and Adam _________________________________________________________
I've looked at this photo and tried to figure out what these boys are feeling. What's your interpretation? _________________________________________________________
Chad and Tyler bonding over a chicken skewer. And their coordinated shirts...

Stephanie and Shaun showing some love!

Marlin with his girlfriend Jade.
PS, lets look at how many people Julie got cheek to cheek with:
I know, it's not fair, as these are photos from her camera... but really, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Ok- I'm just jealous, there's not a photo to be found of Julie pressing her cheek to mine!
