I had wondered how I would sleep that first night. The answer? Like a baby.

The view from our bed.

I was still exploring all the details of Nancy’s place. There were well placed vignettes everywhere. And the craftsmanship of the infrastructure was perfect. Check out these stone steps.

Nancy escorted us to Sechelt and the Botanical Gardens. Here is an excerpt from the Sunshine Coast Travel Guide: “Flanked on both sides by the ocean, its the perfect launching pad for boating and paddling to surrounding fjords including Narrows, Salmon and Sechelt Inlets. Neighbourhoods like Davis Bay, Sandy Hook and Tuwanek offer access to tranquil beaches, parks and trails or you can head downtown to visit shops and restaurants”.

There was a bumper crop of apples at Bricker Cidery. A place we stopped for refreshment. Check out their website for their origins and ongoing story. https://brickerscider.com/

The annuals at Beckers were still blooming their heads off.

D and Nance each had a flight and I really enjoyed the Earl Grey Cider.

We were hungry for lunch but didn’t want to spoil our dinner, so we enjoyed a delicious snack lunch including vegan cheeses (that we had purchased at the Sechelt Farmer’s Market) and truffle potato chips!

By this time we were joined by Nancy’s brother and friend. D was making us all barbeque pork chops for supper and the day was another balmy one. So we lingered outside on the deck enjoying an exquisite sunset and the perfect location. The sunset was more and more beautiful.

D bonded with the guys and we had a wonderful time around the table with new friends.
