Have I mentioned that the husband travels a lot on business? Because he visits a variety of far flung places it means he can be away for a couple of weeks at a time, which is quite tough on the kids (me too, actually).
Anyway, about three weeks ago he had to go out to Nairobi. Then to Miami. Then to Houston. So when he suggested the children and I joined him in our favourite city, we leapt up very high at the chance. It was an extremely long journey which involved a lengthy stop over. But once there, it was all most definitely worth it and quickly forgotten because we visited a city where you can spend the morning up in the snowy mountains
afternoon, cycling to the beach
and perhaps a spot of shopping in the evening
right here ..
As well as revisiting Canada, we crossed the border into the States and drove down into Washington and Oregon for a couple of days over Easter. It was whilst in Oregon that I met up with a very, very special lady, and I shall tell you all about that next time.
Happy Monday to you, it is a fabulous day here.
You lucky, lucky thing!! :)
ReplyDeleteMy son did that trip a few years ago and he said it was amazing, he went down as far as San Francisco.
I think the special lady has already let the cat out of the bag, how lovely to meet her. :)
Such a brilliant holiday, I'll admit it I'm jealous! ;)
Happy new week Kate, bright and sunny here but very chilly,

Ahhhhh, I guessed Vancouver. It is a delightful city. Lucky you! Have a great time.
ReplyDeleteCheers
You always photograph Canada so well. I hope you were made to feel welcome. Vancouver is a very long journey for me, so I can imagine for you and the kiddos! I look forward to hearing more about your adventure. Welcome back to this little space.
ReplyDelete'oh-my-word' and there was me thinking you were just going to head down to Devon or somewhere for your Easter hols!
ReplyDeleteBack to reality though - for us all - this week, but 'oh' the memories.
Here's to the Easter break and adventures.
