The Gulf Islands on Reflection

We join Brian and Marilyn on Reflection heading out to Poets Cove for a rendezvous with Pat & Nancy and Steve and Anna. All 3 boats are tied up to the break water just outside the marina.

 Brian and Marilyn, Reflection a Nordic Tug 42 in the background.
The breakwater with our 'garden chairs' and picnic table.

The jelly fish are looking very healthy in this area.
 It was a cool, rainy day when the 4 of us set out to collect the crab trap.

 The results were good and they will soon be in the 'pot' and ready for dinner.


The cooking of the crabs are done and we will soon be sitting down to a meal of fresh salmon and crab.

Pacific Border RV Lobster Fest

Every year at about this time Gaston and Sally have a day of games and lobster flown in from Nova Scotia. All the guests bring their pot luck specials to complete the feast.
The day starts with a golf game followed by elimination games of Botchie Ball and ladder golf.







 After dinner the winning teams received jackets, hats or shirts with the rest of us getting consolation prizes.

Nick and Laura travelling East

An exciting day for Nick and Laura as they left Victoria yesterday, car packed to the limits, on their way to Halifax. The sun still hasn't risen when they are fully packed and on the road by 6 AM.
