Treating ourselves....

Wednesday, we went to the Alberni Keg for Happy Hour....had their wonderful calamari and sliders.  We love this place!  We feel like we are in Hong Kong,  London,  New York,  San Francisco....just love the big city downtown vibe.  We'll be back there with Richard and Grace to take advantage of "Lobster Summer" later this month.

And another wonderful bonus of The Keg on Alberni is that there is this fabulous Urban Fare Market. Some of the goodies we picked up.

Last night we went for the music at The Sylvia but it was totally packed out in the bar so split a fish and chips in the dining area.  We had a wonderful view of the ocean and took a walk on the seawall afterwards and watched the sun set.

Tonight it's Heirloom Tomato Menu  Fest at the Provence Marinaside.  Since tomatoes are one of my very favourite foods,  can't wait!   When our family went camping in the summer in Penticton, dinner was often freshly picked corn on the cob,  tomatoes,  and cherries.  Heaven!

It will definitely be a beach day today.  Good weather on the horizon for quite a few days.

Some photos from last night.  It's a lovely short walk to The Sylvia.

I missed my skunks in Victoria...no skunks on Vancouver Island.  They are beautiful animals...from a distance,  of course.

Now,  I don't think you can see it very well but there is a seagull there and it was actually nibbling the blue flowers...no kidding!

Mobi bikes everywhere!
