Runny Cheese Arts

First thing’s first – barge update: it’s still there. The high tide on Sunday was nowhere near high enough to float it off the rocks, so we got out of bed early for nothing! The only remaining hope for the barge owners is the “king tide” which will happen on the 6th December. The rain did let up last weekend, but is now back and causing more concern for the areas which are still underwater as it is.

We have lots of wonderful photographs to share with you this week. Here is us on the East Vancouver “Culture Crawl” on Saturday:

We went with some friends who told us about the event. Lots of artists and craftspeople open up their studios for you to walk around and take a look. We saw many (expensive) paintings, sculptures, ceramics, furniture and glassware. We didn’t buy anything.

Here is us at a small fondue party we were invited to later that evening:

We consumed just the right amount of cheese and alcoholic beverages, but did stay up a bit too late, so were very tired on Sunday. It was a fun do!

Here is a photo of our lazy Sunday walk around the Vancouver sea wall:

We also ate almond croissants that had 800 calories in each… Ollie went mountain biking and Rosie did some knitting to burn it off.

Every time we have stepped out this week we have been drenched, so we don’t want to spend too much time outside this weekend. We are going to a brewery this evening and then may do another escape room on Saturday. We can’t persuade any friends to go with us though, so it will be a Rollie solo effort… we are concerned that there might be a little more fighting than usual.
