Yesterday we had a really nice day. We got up, had coffee and breakfast and got ready to go for a nice walk. It was gorgeous and sunny, and a lot of the snow had melted a bit so wasn't too difficult for walking. Jan took us on a long, lovely route where we saw some new developments in the area, the mountain close to Gibsons, Mount Elphinstone. It was a nice outing.
We walked for some time, then stopped at a local coffee cafe for a rest and a coffee. It is owned by some friends of Jan's, who happened to be there when we went. We had a nice chat with the owners, then enjoyed our coffee in the bright sunshine.
Our walk continued around the area and wound us up at home. We stopped for some groceries along the way, as we had intended to make a cake when we got home. That didn't quite happen, so I think we'll do that today.
We had also planned to go out for a belated birthday dinner for Jan, but weren't feeling up to it, so we just stayed home and watched a movie together. It was very relaxing and perfect for the day. If we feel like going out for lunch or dinner today, we'll try it today.
Here are the photos of the coffee shop, a stop at one of the Thrift Stores and sights along the walk.
