The O's come to visit aboard the Lochearn Lassie

The O's came aboard the WA State Ferry from Anacortes to Sydney, BC on the Fourth of July.  We set off right away for Otter Bay on North Pender Island.   This is a small, family friendly marina with a heated pool, playground and  relaxed atmosphere.  Lilly and Nanna decorated the boat and we had an all American supper of Hamburgers, potato salad and apple pie.  Afteer a few days we went to Ganges on Salt Spring Island, the largest town in the Canadian Gulf Islands.

Heading back to the boat after lunch in town.


Saturday morning we went to the Ganges Farmer's Market.  Lilly discovered the lady with the broad beans who gave her a sample to taste.  We bought some and then Lilly and Nanna shelled the beans and cooked them for dinner.  Very delicious!  Henry like them too!  Grandpa tried to catch some crabs but we only got one so we went to the fish store and bought 4 big Dungeness Crabs which we cooked for dinner,   Yummy!
