What is it like to be driven around in a 1952 Vintage Mercury Pickup? An experience only found at Covert Farm! It's an 1.5-hour tour on the 650-acre farm, and let me tell you all about it.
[Travel] Cuckoo Trattoria & Pizzeria, Coombs BC
If you are asking for suggestions around Mid Vancouver Island, almost everyone would tell you about this little town named Coombs. So what's there? The biggest draw is definitely the Old Country Market, better known as the Goats on the Roof Market. Namely, there are living goats on the roof! We were lucky to see a few of them grazing and chilling on the roof. While we were there, we had lunch at the Cuckoo Trattoria Italian Restaurant next door. It has a good selection of pasta and pizza dishes.
[Travel] Gabriel’s Cafe, Nanaimo BC
We took a trip to Vancouver Island. It was a pretty epic trip -- travelled from Nanaimo to Port Hardy and San Josef Bay in the northwest corner, and everywhere in between -- 2,300km in 9 days. First stop, Nanaimo. It was brunch time when we arrived in Nanaimo. Downtown Nanaimo has no shortage of brunch options, and Gabriel's Cafe caught my eyes.
[Travel] 36 Hours of Focus in WhistlerÂ
When I was contacted by our friends at Ford Canada that I'd have a Ford Focus for a week, the hopeful boy racer in Mr. asked, “is it an ST? Is it a hatchback?" As it turns out, it was a fully loaded (Titanium) sedan with a pretty blue paint job. It also happened to be the same week as we threw a surprise birthday weekend in Whistler for one of Mr.'s close friends. So we gave the Focus a thorough test on a 36-hour trip.
Richmond now has a Dumpling Trail!
Yesterday I received a pretty neat surprise at lunch. Tourism Richmond delivered some freshly made dumplings from a number of Richmond restaurants. Why, you ask? There's now a Dumpling Trail in Richmond!
