Sisters Day Out

On a cold winter's morning, Dan showed Soph the neighbourhood. Playgrounds, photography and generally being silly, was the order of the day

Welcome Sophie 2!!!

After many dramas getting here, Sophie 2 (aka: Sophie Cutler) arrived safe and sound in Vancouver (and didn't Vancouver know it!)



Dan and Soph took a mini ferry trip



Soph showed her excitement is some different ways!





The Official Welcome Dinner.
For those planning to visit, this is what you'll get your first night here. Dan's visitor-renowned soy and garlic baked spring salmon with Japonica rice and asparagus.





Enjoying the christmas festivities

Skiing Above Vancouver... and Dessert

This is Grouse Mountain in Vancouver. We took Sophie here for her first skiing trip in Canada!

Check out the views of the city from the slopes. (If you can see under the clouds that is!)

Milkshakes and hamburgers at Hamburger Mary's

Early December always comes with christmas tree decorating!!! Family came just in time!

Dan puts the angel on our tree.

All dressed up for our dinner (on Granny and Gramps!)
