Family getaway to Comox Valley, Vancouver Island A few weeks ago we were invited by BC Transit to participate in its #ExploreBCbyBus campaign. The objective of the campaign is to showcase low cost, family friendly summer activities in British Columbia that can be accessed by BC Transit. It was an interesting proposition since we rarely take public […]
Photos from our trip to Point Roberts in Washington State
Point Roberts, Washington A couple of weeks ago we spent a few nights in Point Roberts, a peaceful seaside village located in the Pacific Northwest that is technically a part of mainland United States, but it’s not physically connected to it (we shared a map of its peculiar location in our last post). Point Roberts is close in proximity to […]
The fun and quirky Point Roberts fire hydrants
The quirky Point Roberts Fire Hydrants Not a lot happens on Point Roberts. It’s a sleepy seaside village in the Pacific Northwest that’s technically a part of mainland United States, but it’s not physically connected to it. Sounds a little strange, doesn’t it? It’s actually quite an interesting place. “The Point”, as it’s often called by its […]
30 Photos from our Winter Ski Trip to Sun Peaks
Winter fun at Sun Peaks Resort, British Columbia Given that it’s practically summer over here in the Pacific Northwest, it feels a little strange to be posting a photo essay from our winter trip to Sun Peaks Resort. We visited Canada’s second largest ski resort a few weeks ago, at the end of March, just a couple weeks before it […]
Dog sledding at Sun Peaks Resort in British Columbia
Dog sledding at Sun Peaks Resort, British Columbia It feels a little strange to be writing about our winter adventures while the sun is shining over Vancouver and temperatures hit 22 degrees Celsius this afternoon (that’s 72 degrees for our friends to the south). It’s only been a few weeks since our trip to Sun Peaks, but […]
Learning to ski at Sun Peaks Resort in British Columbia
Learning to ski at Sun Peaks Resort A few weeks ago, we returned to one of our favourite alpine villages in Canada – Sun Peaks Resort. The last time we visited Sun Peaks, back in 2014, Braydon was only 2 years old and Connor was just a few months old. Times have certainly changed since that last visit! […]
Looking Back – 50 photos that tell our 2015 Story
Another year in the history books! Well, here we are again. Another year complete. When I look at our 4 year old and 2 year old boys I find it hard to believe how quickly time is moving. While the new year allows us all to click the restart button, it’s much more than that. The new […]
PHOTOS: Snowboarding on Cypress Mountain in Vancouver
Cypress Mountain, British Columbia Winter has finally arrived on BC’s Coast Mountains. Last weekend, I went up to Cypress Mountain to take advantage of the 120+ cm’s of snow that hit the Lower Mainland in less than 7 days. As these photos show, I was rewarded for my early morning effort! Every year I set a […]
