I’m hot.

Ahoy! This week we have hoisted our main sails and launched into a week long beginners sailing course. Every evening after work we have set off windward across Vancouver to get to Jericho beach for our 6pm – 9pm lesson.

On Friday night we went to a bar on the waterfront in Vancouver for a couple of beers with Thom and Hannah… and we totally forgot about the blog! Oops! Hopefully you can still enjoy this on Sunday instead of the usual Saturday slot. The weather was looking very rainy last weekend. Two months previouslyContinue reading “Better Late then Never…”

Last weekend we were invited on a spontaneous camping trip with a friend we made on the woodwork course back in February and a group of their other friends. They knew of a campsite along the Squamish river which isn’t always fully booked. It was very sunny on Saturday and we were raring to go!

Rosie had a checklist of dos and don’ts from the dentist after having her wisdom teeth out. Don’t: eat anything tasty or drink anything fun, rinse for 24 hours, poke your gums with your tongue, sneeze, etc. Do relax and take things easy. Ollie was torn between making sure she followed all the rules and wanting to go for a bike ride…

Wisdom teeth and vaccines… it’s been a traumatic week.

We haven’t done a vlog for a while… so here is one about a haul we got this week.

The rain is back. Sigh. We went out for a walk anyway last weekend. We decided to revisit Norvan Falls.

Our friends Thom and Hannah invited us to spend Friday night with them on Mount Seymour. We had already booked a campsite by the beach at Porteau Cove, luckily this was just for Saturday night… Double camping!

It’s finally not raining in Vancouver! So that means we have had a busy week walking around outside.
