In May, we decided to follow Dan and Sarah to Vancouver for a little visit. They had been planning this trip for a while and about 2 weeks before they were going, we decided to join in. It was so much fun and we had great weather. We broke up our drive by going to Vale first then heading the rest of the way the next day. It's nice to be able to break up the 15 hr drive. We had so many pictures, I had a really hard time choosing which ones to blog. Looks like I chose most of them, but I really didn't!
Nothing like eating lunch watching a movie on the Ipad!
We went to Science World first........not only for kids!!!!!
You can't really tell, but they are standing in front of a wind machine!
Molly and Annie
The balls and water were a highlight
James was thirsty I suppose
Annie, Molly and Leah
Scary
This seat allowed you to pull like a third of your weight.
Skinny Molly still had a hard time.....:)
Leah decided to help Annie
Not sure what was so scary :-)
Again, not only for kids!
Then we headed to Granville Island. Lots of little shops and a market place. The kids had lots of fun in this store trying on all of the hats......not sure the store worker liked it very well though!
After grabbing a bite to eat we walked out on the pier
The bushes outside Scott's parents house were GORGEOUS!!!!!! We usually come in the winter and don't get this sight. I just had to take some pictures, and they don't even do it justice!
One day we headed to Old Town Burnaby. A historic town with restored buildings.
The kids.....Leah, Annie, James, Molly and Fos
After walking around, we rewarded the kids with a carousel ride. This too being very historic.
One evening we headed to the beach. It was low tide so the kids got to walk out a long ways. They played, we roasted hot dogs and flew kites. It was a lot of fun! It was a little windy so Nathan and I sat in the van most of the time!
After playing in the water, we headed to this park right on the beach. The kids (and adults) had a blast!
Another adventure was Lynn Canyon hike. First we ate a picnic lunch then found hiking sticks and were on our way......over the suspension bridge and through the woods. All to play in some freezing cold water with gorgeous views! Couldn't get much better than this! It was gorgeous. The last time I was there was when Scott and I were just dating and it was in December......a little different feel!
Crazy faces....Me, Brian and Sarah
Cute Chris and Amy
Not the best picture lighting, but fun. They were on a big rock.
These two look a little mischievous
Too cute.....James and Fos
