As anyone who has tried to check this blog in the last 5 weeks or so has been well aware, Kathryn and I have had a very busy spring with very few updates. The day after I finished OT work on my last Vancouver film project, my parents arrived in town and we all went up to the Sunshine Coast of BC which is accessibly only by ferry. We had a very pleasant week up there relaxing by the sea and taking walks in the forest.
A few days later we flew to Saint Sauveur which is a small town in the Laurentians where I had a short term work contract. While the money was a bonus, the real reason to take the job was to have a chance to explore Quebec and catch up with some friends. We lived in the countryside for about a month with the occassional day trip to Montreal and then spent a week going up the coast to Quebec City and Tadoussac afterwards.
Finally, since Canada Day is one of our favorite holidays and we have wanted to spend it in Ottawa for some time, we tacked on a quick visit out there to see some friends and take in the festivities. The royal newlyweds were in town as well which didn't really interest us, but certainly ratcheted up the crowds and craziness to make for a very memorable trip.
There will be lots more pictures and rambling about all three of these destinations in the coming months, but this at least offers a quick explanation for our overlong absence and gives you all an idea of what we have to share in the coming weeks.
