Day Trip To Bowen Island

Yesterday we headed over to Bowen Island to visit our friends Alf The Fly & J.. They have an awesome log home on a hilltop overlooking the Georgia Straight, Howe Sound and North Shore Mountains. Awesome, awesome views.

After eating a tasty lunch we headed out for a walk around a large lake. They brought their puppy Lance (named after Lance Armstrong) who bounded about the trail. After circling the lake, we toured the island island checking out a bunch of the viewpoints, beaches and houses. Dang, it's nice out there!

After a few months hard work and an afternoon in the cold, we were more than happy to relax in their hot-tub. It's in a perfect setting out amongst the trees, looking back to the mountain and forest. It really is very nice indeed.

After much re-juvination in the hot tub, we ended the night with an episode of Wallace & Gromit and some more tasty food. mmmmm.

We headed back to the mainland in the darkness, and breathed in the cold night air from the ferry. A fine Pacfic Northwest day out.
