In May we went to visit my brother, Leroy, in Kamloops, about 2.5 hour drive from here. It was lovely to see my brother, but the trip was pretty much a disaster besides that! Aksel was super sick with an ear infection, or something, and had a high fever and barely slept the 2 nights we were there. It was also quite cold, which it normally isn't at that time of year, which made it a bit difficult to spend too much time outdoors, especially for Aksel as he was sick. We went up to a lake to walk around a bit, and it was actually snowing!! Couldn't believe it. Then the 2nd night Håkon got a stomach bug and was up all night ... so when Aksel wasn't up, Håkon was jumping up beside me to rush off.. Thanks Leroy, for putting up with us!
Then in June, Håkon's cousin, Åse Berit, came to visit us from Norway on her way to the States to visit people where she was on exchange with earlier. We had such a nice time with her, and the boys LOVED her - she didn't get much peace, I'm afraid! So we toured around Abbotsford and the Vancouver area. We went to White Rock one day, and we have since gone there quite a lot. The tide pools there are wonderful for kids - shallow bits of water with all sort of fish and crab in them to find and are warm and shallow so the grown-ups can relax too!
