Our electric fireplace arrived just before we had to leave for the ferry so didn't get a chance to take it out of the box but I think we'll be thrilled with it. It has a feature so you can have the flame with no heat. I think we'll love that. And the flamingos Derek and Mary gave us will be just perfect on the mantle!
We don't plan to be back now until we leave for London and Spain. We're really looking forward to leaving from Vancouver.
