Downtime on the Beach

Laura and I spent Saturday through Monday reaquainting her with the loveliness that is just sitting at the beach.

Transition day went really well with the pick-up/drop-off switch at the airport. It was fantastic to see Laura and nice to have a quiet night in with pizza and Big Brother :)

Saturday morning we set out "just for coffee" and spent the day walking along Kits Beach, had a huge burger at Vera's, and wondered up to 4th for groceries. The evening was spent at the beach, enjoying a great fireworks finale.

Sunday was a very "West Coast" day. More on that to follow...

Monday we spent the morning planning our Island Adventure and then took a bus over to the downtown area. We had lunch at a diner we like on Granville Street and headed to Sunset Beach for some reading and reclining. We took the tiny tugboat back and walked home from the Marine Museum. Then, you guessed it, sunset at Kits Beach. Have I mentioned I love it here?

We're on the island now - until Saturday - so I'll post more details when I get back :)

You know, there are beaches in Ontario. Mind you, that water in the lakes here is warmer, not being the ocean and all. You should think about checking out cottage country when you get back - you might like it!
