Steveston

We always enjoy Steveston and it was great to introduce Derek to it. He's only about a 10 minutes drive so I'm sure it will become a regular outing with all the interesting shops, restaurants, and of course the fishboats. There were a lot of fishboats selling their wares on the Saturday we were there.


Fishboats and the old cannery building in the background which is now a super museum...well worth a visit.



One of the first things that caught our eye were the sea urchins for sale. These large ones were very different than the ones you find in France. They had some smaller green ones that were more similar. According to the experts around the smaller ones were sweeter so probably more like the French ones.
