Summer: Sailing Weekend

From July 19-21 we were sailing with Grandma and Grandpa. It was a great time. I love sailing. We spent the first night at Gibsons and the second night at Snug Cove on Bowen Island. Here are some pictures from the weekend:
We saw many ferries on our trip
I got a chance to steer
Grandpa pointed out many things along the way




We had Ice Cream quite a few times

We each had a turn going out in the dinghy
Joshua's special place
That is my sweatshirt that he put his legs in to keep warm.
We went on a walk and saw this interesting tree






Another dinghy ride
Eating dinner
There was a fire drill on the ferry but we weren't sure if it was real or not at first
Rebecca noticed that the shadow of the diamonds is opposite the way the actual diamonds were

I got to go with my Mom
My special place was in all the luggage


This was Rebecca's special place
It was a great weekend but was a little crowded with 8 people on a 27 foot boat. We had a really good time and I want to do it again next year.

Summer - Nova Scotia Trip Part 2

Day 6: On to PEI. Across the bridge to Cows Creamery, Green Gables and the beach.


















We saw a fox on the way to our...
cottage.
Day 7: The Singing Sands, Souris Lighthouse and back to Nova Scotia


I have a video of the singing sands but sadly it won't work.





Day 8: The Halifax Citadel, Harbor Hopper and a very special dinner.






We got to see the noon gun go off. I have a video of this but it won't work.












They made it on the table right in front of us.

Day 9: Ocean Kayaking. Mommy and Rebecca were in one kayak, Daddy and Caleb were in another and Josh and I were in a third one.








Day 10: The flight back to Vancouver.
It was an awesome trip. I had a lot of great times and I couldn't tell you what my favorite part was. I hope to soon write about other trips that we have taken.
