On April 23rd in the afternoon I went with my friend Ashleigh to Willowbrook Mall on the transit public bus because Whale House had cancelled their mall outing and the weather was really windy but even sunny outside during the day/afternoon. None of the staff and Whale House members didn't bother to phone or say that there was no mall outing before leaving at 1 pm. On our way back from being in Willowbrook Mall, Langley there was a power outage throughout the afternoon in White Rock. The power outage wasn't caused by the strong windy weather but, it happened from an accident caused by a car hitting and knocking down a powerline pole on 16 Avenue. Some of the stores, restaurants, cafès, pubs/bars and Semiahmoo Mall itself were closed and even the traffic/city lights didn't work due to the power outage. The mall, cafès, restaurants, banks and stores had signs saying that the power would be back on and working today. We both couldn't go to any coffee shops to have coffee or a drink and we also couldn't eat at White Rock Chinese Garden restaurant either which sucked when the power was out so, me and Ashleigh ended up going for a coffee and drink to Small Ritual Cafè close to 5 Corners and then we ate at Leela Thai restaurant. The 5 Corners businesses had their lights working and the street lights were working too. Leela Thai has yummy excellent thai food and the staff are friendly there as well! I enjoyed having thai food a few there with my friends and it was good to go there last night since Ashleigh and me haven't been to Leela Thai for a while. I hope the powerline pole got fixed and that the powerlines are working again so the businesses will have electricity and be opened busy the next day.
