Wednesday PM.,.,..August 18th...2010

Day 3 of Jillian's Great Victorian Adventure..
.
We are an hour out of Seattle...the water is much smoother and Mrs. Wood has kept her "cookies" this trip...in fact she is quite animated, playing cards with the grand daughter (The Buzzard).

No nap today for Mrs. Wood as we slept in and then checked out of the Empress Hotel.....then on to the The Royal BC Museum.....then on to the Craigdarroch Castle......both of which the two "girls" found most entertaining.

Jillian got her prize of cookies and milk through room service this am and tipped the server ...good for her.

Linda has had a good week and a good Victorian trip. Tomorrow we do Pikes Place in Seattle as well as another museum but Mrs. Wood will most likely take a day off as we travel home by train on Friday...Grand daughter #2 Taigen and son in law Chris will be joining us tomorrow..
.
ps...the pictures are of Linda playing the piano at the castle....the castle itself....an animated Linda at lunch and room service....all in reverse order....,..

Looks like your having a great trip. Jillian is growing up fast...and she looks nothing like a buzzard! What a special trip. Have fun.

Sounds like it was a really fun trip!... and Dave... you keep calling Jillian the real buzzard, but you know that it takes one to know one, right?! (LOL)
Enjoy your time in Seattle, and have a safe trip home.

Brings back sooooooooooooooo many memories: we used to take Sacha & Guy to Victoria when they were little tikes, and continued many years as it was one of our favorite family spots. The museum was already then a fantastic display and informative place to visit! Sounds like you had loads of fun too. Can't believe what all you accomplished in the last few weeks ... but best of all the news how well you are feeling! Lots of happy times! Enjoy!
Love
