On Ancient Murrelet

We are on the boat for two days and everybody is enjoying the hot weather and ocean. The bubble bath at night in our jacuzzi on board is also a great hit. Yesterday, we came into Pirates’ Cove, which features a real pirates treasure chest. Kind members of a local yacht club keep it filled with treasures, and the kids picked a few choice items. All the kayaks and paddle boards are in constant use. Today we are heading back.

Busy day

Alistair joined us on Saturday, and for whatever reason, he doesn’t suffer from jet lag. Today we left early for an excursion to Capilano Suspension Bridge, which was great fun. Then we had a picnic lunch in a park close by, where Oliver discovered a nice swimming hole in the stream running through the park. We others found the water a little chilly. This was followed by a few hours at Third Beach and a hamburger dinner, and Bernice joined us for that. Now everybody is very tired and we hope the kids fall asleep soon so we can also go to bed.

Beach day

Another hot and sunny day, and we spent it all on the beach in English Bay. Oliver was in luck as the tide was high enough for the big slide to open, all had fun in the sand and sun.

Another day at the park

Yesterday, we celebrated my birthday in a very nice restaurant and Sheila, her mother, Jessica and the boys watched a great fire work at English Bay. Today we are spending the day at Queen’s Park in New Westminster.

Besuch

Jessica, Oliver, Max und Clara sind gut angekommen und wir haben viel Spaß zusammen. Das Wetter ist weiter sehr heiß und sonnig, ideal für den Strandbesuch.
