Our trip was a success!
Vancouver Island in one word: Beautiful.
A colour: Blue.
Travelling with a three year old: up and down. Example of what was challenging: beginning a beautiful hike in the woods and wanting Simon to carry her: "
Dans les bras de dada". Example of fun times: letting her play for hours at the beach. It's amazing the hours of enjoyment from a pail and shovel!
The weather: consistently gorgeous: blue skies, sunshine, light breeze, no mosquitoes! A bit frisky in Ucluelet, but that was expected.
Where I would live in a flash: Salt Spring Island. Why? It's quirky, artsy, and they sell snap peas on the side of the road!
We took almost 500 pictures.
We printed out 200 pictures for our super album. Some of you will be lucky to peruse it when we see you.
For those who won't get a chance (and those who want a pre-show), here are some of them:

ReplyDeleteWhoever served Margot her icecream must have fallen immediately under her charm, she seems to have about five scoops crammed into that cone!
Can't wait to hear more about icecream and the rest :)
