Rainy day in Vancouver

 up early - time change!!

Breakfast - at Sylvia hotel

Decided to go over to Granville Island today 

Walked along the beach on the way to ferry. Lots of boats out in the harbour. Saw a bald eagle. Saw the barge! 

Granville island - walked around the market area, much emptier than before. Less people and less vendors. Didn’t buy anything :)

Went to my sister’s in the afternoon, then went to the store. Picked Cleo up at school and Rylah met us on the doorstep. I still can’t believe she will be 13 on Friday!! 

The girls went to their dad’s tonight so my mom, sister and I walked to the brewery for supper.

Mom and I are back at the hotel now. It’s midnight for us and I think we’ll be asleep in no time.  Tomorrow we’ll go exploring in the morning & then meeting my sister at 1:00 when she is done work :) I have a feeling shopping will be involved, not my favourite thing to do, but hopefully there will be some stores I like. I do need new rain boots, wh...

Birthday day!

Today we did some shopping and then headed to my sister’s to celebrate my nieces 13th birthday. We had pizza and ice cream cake. Both delicious.  Also had a fraud alert on my credit card and now it’s been cancelled :) Should be an interesting rest of vacation without my favourite credit card!
