Back from the Island !!!

Well we are back from our whirl wind trip to Vancouver Island! What an amazing vacation. I just wanted to share some of the photos I picked out for a mini album that will be featured at Bo Bunny in October! I'll try not to yap too long, lol.

 This is ME!, lol. The first day we spent at Butchart Gardens. Just acres and acres of gorgeous flowers.
 We went to a Wine Festival on Saturday and visited several different Vineyards. I thought the grapes were so cool.
 Just a photo of the Vineyard at the Zanatta Winery
 Yup, this is what I was doing on a Saturday afternoon. Just relaxing with a bottle of goodness!
 We met this incredibly talented Jazz Singer named Maureen Washington at the Vineyard. We just hit it off!! Her and her husband treated us to two nights out on the town filled with food, fun and laughter! Just the two most wonderful people I've met. And..her music is AMAZING!
 On Sunday we went on a whale watching tour. Oh yes, I got on a boat and went on the ocean! I am terrified of water so this was a huge feat for me, lol. We visited these fun little sea lions and saw two terrific humpback whales on our tour!
 The highlight of my trip was walking down the docks. We came across this family of seals that live there and we got some fish and the little kids and I fed him. He was adorable!
 On our last day we just spent some time driving the island and stopping by the ocean to just take in the beauty of the mountains and the ocean.
Now this guy is my sweet husband who let me go into all the tacky tourist stores, bought me endless coffees, wined and dined me and made me the happiest girl in the world!

The rest of my 300 photos I'm sure will end up on layouts, but these were some of my favorites!

Thanks so much for stopping by. I love reading your comments and I appreciate your scrappy support! Have a wonderfully happy scrappy day! Lynn
