DAY 60

Today I am grateful for: an afternoon in the garden



We have arrived in Canada! Hooray!

Today I am grateful for time in the garden with the kids and not spending days in the car anymore. We arrived in Vancouver Island this afternoon and headed to Danny & Al's friends Ben and Charlene and their little boy Noah. They have a giant vege garden in their backyard and a huge apple tree.

We had a great moment picking apples straight off the tree and eating them for afternoon tea. You can see Danny giving Alison her apple in the top right photo. I said I thought in the olden days if your true love presented you an apple it was a marriage proposal - lucky they were already hitched! It was nice for Jamin to see where apples actually come from - not just the fruit section at the supermarket.

The scenery today was amazing again.


Washington national parks and on the ferry to Vancouver Island.


Just outside of Seattle.


I really like this photo. A little eerie but also reflective.

Remember what happened when the first woman gave an apple to her man...
