Hello Sunshine Coast

Part 4----time with our wonderful daughter and son-in-law, Karen and Dave.
 Time to unwind after a whirlwind two weeks.
Always time to drink beer and eat apple pie.
Time for mother and daughter to relax on the pier and admire the view.


'Move over,' says dad, 'and make room for me.'


Also time to soak up the atmosphere of Gibsons......... the  magnificent mountains, the bustling marina, the peace and joy of just being here. 

And,of course, time to discover the passion of the locals for HOCKEY!!!
While we were in Canada the Vancouver Canucks tried to win the Stanley cup, an elusive trophy which it would appear truly belongs in Vancouver.      As can be seen in the photo, even George Gibson, the founder of this town, had to wear a Canucks' shirt!
Sadly, in vain, as they lost the final.
