Day 23

Post date: Aug 02, 2012 3:59:44 AM

Leaving my happy place this morning was very hard. We waited until Lesley's kids came back from day camp to let the boys have a chance to say good-bye.

Elsie wants a cabin in Point Roberts, she told me.

Then we headed out to Granville Island to meet up with Grampa and Gloria and spend the day exploring the waterfront.

The boys fed the pigeons french fries. Well, Leo did. Russell chased them around and around yelling "DIE, PIGEONS, DIE!" at the top of his lungs.

Then they took a long ferry ride with Grampa and Daddy to the Marine Museum,

where Kurtis fulfilled his dream of becoming an old school deep sea diver.

After sailing back to join Gloria, Mommy and Elsie...who were exploring the craft shops,

they rode on a dinosaur,

and fed some more birds.

Guess what Russell is yelling while he runs through this flock of pigeons????

There was a cute little tug-boat playground where Leo piloted his way through several incoming tsunamis.

And Elsie looked so adorable that more strangers asked to take her picture.
