Hi All
Here we are in warm sunny Vancouver, we arrived late Friday night and had an even latter night catching up with our good friends (ex-expats from Jamaica) Keith & Gloria over some wine, Appleton VX and a bottel of Baileys, phew!
On Saturday they drove us around to see some of the beuatiful sights of Vancouver, Stanley Park, and then up on the gondola to Grouse Mountain where we had brunch overlooking Vancouver Harbour and the city, absolutely stunning views looking down and up at the snow capped mountains above us!
We watched lumberjacks do their stuff and viewed movies of the history and development of Grouse Mountain, all very interesting.
Then it was on to a harbourside market development called Grandville Island Markets that had nice restaurants, bars and a great fresh food market, of course that was an excellent oportunity to try the local beer!
Saturday night was a delighful fun filled dinner at the hotel where we are staying where we were joined by (two other ex-expats from Jamaica) Dennis & Judy Carey.
So today we will be doing a little sightseeing before getting the ferry to Keith & Gloria's home in Victoria for a week and a bit or until they kick one or both of us out!
All for now stay tuned
David & Tessa
