Back to BC....










May 10 we left the family in Toronto and flew to Vancouver.......ah, there are those amazing mountains we have been missing........













The Rocky Mountains are breathtaking no matter how often you see them, and we are happy to see snow at 36,000 ft rather than close up..........









We had 3 great days in Vancouver, had a visit with Sylvia, and got to see the enormous new Ikea in Richmond.










....check out the views of the north Vancouver mountain ranges from the restaurant in Ikea......!!!









The second night Jason made a huge feast of beef stroganoff and invited Sean, Kelly and little Emma for dinner. Sadly, your trusty blogger totally forgot to take any pictures........grrrr..........and the 3rd night we went to Harley, Lorraine and Saba's place for dinner.










Jason and Miki on the amazing covered patio at Harley and Lorraine's - boy, were we spoiled....prawns on the grill as an appy, then grilled lamb, roast potatoes and a huge salad. Great eats......











We took Saba out for a walk and helped walk off our  big  dinner......the entrance to their place.......











This is their great back green space..........











and a view of that patio from the green space.....














A trail through the forest leads to a huge school playgound, alias dog park...........















......where Saba gets to run, chase her ball and play with other dogs......













...like this little muffin...............








Thanks, you 3, it was a great evening....see you in Parksville this summer!!!!
