We were able to get in touch with Steve, a good family friend. We ate lunch at a decently priced "all you can eat" fish & chips restaurant. We then followed the meal by a nice walk around Simon Fraser (at least I think that is the name).

The second half of our journey included the regular visit to the Tigh-Na-Mara resort. We had a great ferry ride however the girls didn't enjoy the strong wind on the deck. So after a yummy and traditional lunch of a BC burger and fries), we did multiple circles around the interior, with an occasional visit outside.

The weather this year was far better than last. I don't think it rained once. Our daily routine usually involved a trip to the beach and the pool. And with the weather being on our side, everything was that much more enjoyable. Here are some pictures of our cabin, as well as some shots of a typical time at the beach.
