Vancouver visitor



Our friend Kevin, who we met in Puerto Morelos, came to Parksville for the weekend. It was so hot one evening, we just went down to the beach, walked around in the warm water, and enjoyed the lovely evening.






Sunday we attended Jazz in the Garden, at Milner Gardens. As the wonderful music played, we sat on the porch of the Milner House and had tea.....perfect.









Milner House was built in 1929 and this waterfront home has had many royal visitors over the years. The Milners left the home and 70 acres to be enjoyed by the public forever. Amazing gardens, many events such as the jazz concert throughout the year, and of course, always tea served with all the style of an era gone by.





The music went from 12 to 4 and included many well known jazz musicians as well as some very talented young adults who had attended Phil Dwyer's music camp this summer. All in all, a fabulous concert by the sea.
