We Made It!
It was an early start this morning, we were at the airport by 6:00 AM
for our 7:30 AM flight. The flight before and after our flight to
Vancouver were both cancelled. Here are the girls in the airport.
Claudia did pretty good for a five hour flight.
Claudia took a picture of the mountains.
We landed on time and after we got our rental car we headed for
Horseshoe Bay to catch the ferry over to the island. We went up to the
sundeck and boy was it windy.
It was crazy windy.

Parksville
Once we got settled in our hotel we headed down to the beach in
Parksville.
It was high tide, the girls waded in up to their knees.
Angela with a couple of rocks she found. There will be a lot of photos
of stuff taken on this trip since they can't bring as much back with
them.
A little crab they found.
There was a park at the beach. The last time we were here we only spent
a few hours in Parksville, so we didn't get down to the beach.
After the beach it was over to Uncle Tak's place.
Angela and Claudia out back looking for frogs.
Uncle Tak's house and pond.
There were alot of black slugs in the grass.
We only found the one frog this time.
The girls enjoyed looking around his studio.
Here are his tools.
All of his certificates and honourary degrees hung on the walls.
Check out his bike hanging from the ceiling.
I liked the corner painting.
