This is getting ridiculous. People across the street from me have power and I'm sitting here blowing bubbles in my tank with a turkey baster! I'm starting to worry :/

Apparently 200,000 people in Metro Vancouver were without power at its worst today.

Default Power Pack
We use this as a backup. Originally got it for camping but it's perfect to plug in the aquarium when the power goes out.

After calling bc hydro they gave me an estimated time of 12:30 am. Fingers crossed!

That's for east burnaby area anyway. They said most of burnaby should be up with power around that time. I so hope so cuz I'm heading to tofino early tomorrow and can't stay up all night pumping air by hand.

Not a good thing to happen when I'm thousands of miles away in England. Fingers crossed!
