Well hello everyone. It's been a long time since I actually made an entry here. Nikki is usually the one who writes and I support with editing and photos. Katie just visited and I thought it appropriate that I be the one to write the entry, since she is my sister. So here goes. Katie's trip started with a wild cab ride to the airport to catch an early flight to avoid missing her connection at JFK. Her cool head prevailed and she was able to finagle her way to the head of the line not only at the ticket counter, but also skipped the ENTIRE security line. Who does that? Nice work sister.

We started the visit off with a couple a beers at The Pub. CHEERS!


For the most part we hung around La Conner, but we did manage to get up to Vancouver and out to the San Juan Islands. My mind was blown when Katie told us it was her first time to Canada. I don't know why that was so surprising but it was.

Katie and Maya stop to smell the roses in Stanley Park.


Katie and I deciphering a map of the park . We like maps.


After the park we headed over to Grainville Island for some fish and chips at Go Fish. If you're ever in Vancouver and you're into fish and chips, go here. It's a little shack on the fishing wharf. Soooo greasy and goooood.


The next day we headed over to Orcas Island in the San Juans. While having lunch Katie and I reverted to our childhood and fought over a sandwich. An epic battle followed:





Thanks sister for coming all this way to hang out. We had fun and can't wait to see you and Ronan soon.
