Some assembly required – Canada

Like I said, I hate flat packs. I reckon that JYSK/Yisk has some flaxen haired Scandinavian guy called Sven on hand somewhere to assemble the display stock in the store.

I just cleaned that! – Canada

“What on earth are you two up to?” “We’re cleaning the house before we leave.” “But, isn’t there a lady who does that after each family leaves?” “Of course! We don’t want the place to be untidy when she comes.”

July 13, 2013 in Family, Life's like that.

There and back again – Tofino Canada

We are divided between two options today – to drive one hour north to Campbell River, and then take a short ferry ride to Quadra Island, where we might be able to kayak with orcas – or travel about three hours to a beach.

Have you ever heard of …? – Vancouver Island

Have you ever been to one of those places that’s just known for one thing? For example, mention Chinchilla and people immediately think of the world melon seed spitting championships.

Nice to C you – Comox Canada

When I was at primary school I learned that there are seven continents and five oceans. I could even name most of them once. Today, we are off on our mystery tour to the four seas, well four “C”s anyway.

An unexpected journey – Vancouver Island

There’s an ancient saying, “When a bald eagle flies across your path, followed by two seagulls, you will undertake an unexpected journey.”

A change of view – Vancouver Island

We are off to Vancouver Island, or just “the island” in local-speak, today.

Sending off in style – Canada

How do you amuse your Aussie friends on the last day before you send them on their way? Don’t stress, there’s no right answer to this question.

Let’s Go Back Eh? – Seattle

It’s a beautiful grey morning in Seattle. Our guide Gentry told us yesterday that Seattle has more than 200 overcast days each year. Today is no exception.

The Eye of the Needle – Seattle

Unlike the Eiffel Tower, the Space Needle in Seattle can’t be seen from every hotel balcony.
