We’ve now been in Fredericton, NB for nearly a week now. Only one more day before we pull out and head back to Ontario again. It’s been a good week here and Nana Shirley has had a great time with the kids. The kids have been staying with her in her condo while Yuki and I stayed in the guest suite they have in the building. It’s been so nice for us not to have to wake up to the kids each morning hahah not sure Nana Shirley can say the same thing though 🙂 Mind you, she does have “Minnie” her little dog that needs to get up every morning about 5 for a walk outside.
I must get some more pics of the girls with Minnie as well.. but she’s pretty skittish of the kids (and adults too really).
Continue reading to see about the trip to St Andrews…. (photos from the day are in Canada – 2010 – Group 3.
We’ve had a lot of rain here in NB, it’s the only thing that’s made the trip a bit tedious really. It would have been nice to have some nicer weather and get out and about more. There’s so much to see in NB but it really does want nicer weather, especially with kids. On Monday (June 7) we took a chance on the weather holding at cloudy and a touch of drizzle to head down to St Andrews for some seafood. The day turned out perfectly. It was cool and windy when we got there but the sun was mostly out and the rain completely stopped. It was great for walking around the town, not so good when you stopped to look though haha
We decided to eat at the Harbour Front Restaurant on Water Street, just about 150m from the Pier. We went here because of the big platter for 2 they had on offer. Well, really it was just a platter for just one Yuki, but I managed to distract her just enough to get a few bits from it 🙂
Some photos of the seafood feast
The first basket is what I ate, the second is what Yuki ate .. the last photo is of the lucky ones that survived the feast 🙂
It was a great day out and everyone had fun. I made Yuki drive back home as she needs practice driving in Canada, she’s going to help with the non-stop drive back to Ontario on Wed night. I’m getting way to old to do it myself now hahah
I sat in the middle row of seats and enjoyed the ride and surfed using the pocket access point and USB rocket pictured above, it was bloody slow haha
Lisa was playing on her DSi (Thanks to Nana Carol) the entire trip down and back to St Andrews, killed the battery completely on the trip.. she’s junky already. Emma, well it was just all too much for her, she had to crash for the entire trip home.
It’s Tuesday now and I’m blogging this from the Chapters – Indigo Bookstore in the Regent St Shopping Mall, sip’n a Starbucks coffee. The girls are all out getting their hair cut and ready for the Wedding on Monday of my Dad and Carol. There will be plenty of photos posted from that 🙂
Well, just got a text, the girls are done and heading for home. I’ll go and meet them and get yuki for a bit more shopping. We need to get a few more things and get back and start getting stuff packed up for tomorrows departure.
Glad you all had such a good time. It was nice having you here and seeing you again and finally meeting Emma and seeing Lisa as a little grown-up as she was only about 10 months old the last time we saw her.
Take care driving home. It’s a long haul doing it all in one day so stop if you get too tired. I’m sure your mother will tell you that!
