Visiting friends in Vancouver: April 2023

It’s been a week since we return from 12 days visiting friends in British Columbia, Canada. We started our visit with a few days in Vancouver to make sure we were Covid free before travelling to Grace’s house in Ladner. With Grace we had lots of Japanese meals, twice eating at Mega Sushi in Steveston. Then the three of us caught a float plane to Salt Spring island to catch up with Bonnie and Bill for a few days. A lovely catch up with friends we have known for many years going back to the day when we lived in Ladner.
