Monica was flying from Seattle to
Victoria today after her short trip there visiting friends and watching the
Giants series. She flew out pretty much on time and Heather and I took the
rental car to the airport to meet her. The Budget people were very nice and
gave us a ride back to the marina in the Courtesy Van. Once we got back to the boat we
had a simple lunch as we decided to head over to Bedwell Harbour on South Pender
Island. The cruise wasn't very long, as we anchored in the cove outside of
the Poet’s Cove Resort.
We took the dinghy to the marina to head in to get a coffee at the little
store. We hung of the beach a while and let Merlin run around on the beach. He
would go knee deep in the water to retrieve a rock, take it to shore, drop it
and repeat. Strange dog J Monica and Heather went up to the
Spa and got gift cards for Fred & I. That
was so sweet! We will
use them on our next trip north. We decided to head back to the boat and sat on
the aft deck in the very warm sun. It turned out to be beautiful day. We saw 2
harbor seals swim by. We’re
hoping to spot some orcas or Dall porpoises this trip. We shall see. Heather gave me my early birthday
present while we were sitting outside… a Walking Dead action figure (it’s our
show we watch together), a locket with dog, anchor and Mom charms in it, and
the movie ‘Marilyn Hotchkiss Dance and Charm School’ (which has Robert Carlyle
in it I from ‘Once Upon a Time’). After dinner we decided to watch the movie I
had just gotten for my birthday. It was different, but we really enjoyed it. We
had the dessert that Heather and I bought to in Victoria, while watching the
movie.
