Summer Time Recap!

Hello Again,

Tonight the snow is on the ground and the winds are biting something fierce. So, what better time to stay indoors and write a little about my summer vacation, right? I thought so too. I had taken a small hiatus from writing blog posts, but now I’m back. I’m hoping to be a little more faithful to the blog, fingers crossed. This summer we had a family vacation to British Columbia(sans Shawn :(). The trip was Fantastic! To be honest, I was a little relieved to say the least. Six Pittmans (and one Perry) on a road trip for two weeks is a bit iffy. All that umm … personality (yeah, that’s it) pent-up into two vehicles for two weeks, well, to say I was apprehensive is an understatement. However, to the pleasant surprise of all of us travellers, the trip was WONDERFUL! We had such a lovely time visiting the beautiful province of BC. Together. After the trip was over I kind of missed seeing everyone everyday (well sort of ;)). 

BC is so great and offers so much to its visitors. Some of the highlights were; breathtaking scenery, fresh fish, pirate ship tours of the harbour, Ice wine, cherry picking, museums, Chinese gardens, winding roads, salt sea air, Emily Carr, goats on a roof (look it up), Italian restaurants, and fresh fruit. That is just a few of the joys that BC offers. I’d recommend for anyone to visit there, definitely worth it. We got to see quite a bit of the province, all of it was lovely, but if I had to choose a favourite spot it would be Victoria. I have plans to return there, someday. Seeing BC with the family? … Well … that only made it that much better. Goodbye summer you were great! Hurry back now, ya hear!
