What a strange thing for us- we have never been away from our family for Christmas. It felt almost wrong – we certainly missed them! Fynn was so excited to open the gifts she was completely over the top. It was very entertaining for us to watch – we had to slow her, Read More
Dec 24 – That Jimmy Buffet song comes to mind – ‘it’s Christmas in the Caribbean…’ but really this in nothing like the Caribbean. No palm trees, and the water is a bit chilly – 67 degrees F. But it is Christmas Eve and it is sunny and lovely. We spent the morning, Read More
Dec 20-21: We didn’t have great weather for our stay at Ilsa San Fransisco. It was chilly and damp and even rained a bit. There was a lovely looking hike up the ridge, but Kyber had torn a hunk of skin off the pad of his foot, and he could walk anywhere. Feeling, Read More

Well we survived. No, not another storm or anything so exciting. Fynn and I survived both the 19 hour day to flight to Vancouver and the 12 hour day to get back. It was pretty intense… Back in October I had to decide if I would be flying home for my 20 week, Read More
Cabo was lovely when we woke up, the arches were glowing in the sunrise and the beaches and hotels were quiet. This quickly deteriorated into more and more chaos. Out came the jetskis and the pangas loaded with tourists, then the party cruises ad the music blaring from the beachfront restaurants. The Bay, Read More
