Kyle enjoying the sunset at the Victoria harbour

Out on Prospect Lake

We were house / dog-sitting for Todd and Kimberly while they were away, and thought we'd take advantage of a beautiful evening to take the boat out on the lake. Kyle even let me drive for a little while.....

"Ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod!"

Ahh, summer!

Seattle Aquarium

We took a road trip to Seattle to visit with my family from Wales and Michigan who were in town for Lynne and Alex's wedding! I hadn't seen these family members for a decade, and I was thrilled to meet up with them for the celebration!
We did the tourist thing and checked out the Aquarium.

I touched a sea star

Sonia was very interested in the Octopus, but was concerned for Mr. Potato Head in the tank!

Gareth, George, Jo, James, Sonia and Jane check out the touch tank

Lobster

I nearly missed this guy until Kyle pointed him out - At first glance I thought he was a rock!

This Skate really, really creeped me out!

Cheese!

While in Seattle visiting my family while they were in Washington, we all loaded onto a boat for a sea tour of the waterfront
