Hubby-Wife Retreat

Oh, it was a grand time!!
 
Off to Victoria for 2 nights / 3 days :)
 
So worth it...
 
We had a great hotel
(bought off of Groupon at 45% off!!)
Parkside Victoria - the luxury 1 bedroom suite -
highly recommended :)
 
Gorgeous views,
old downtown Victoria,
lots of walking,
unique coffeeshops,
great quality time,
Mysteries of Egypt Imax,
comic book store,
discussions,
a little more talking,
sleep, (oh the sleep!!),
swimming, exercising,
and more!!
 Arriving at the ferry at sunrise :)
 
(for most of my time there... pictures were taken on the iphone):
Once we arrived in Victoria we started by walking the path along shore...

 
The first night we had dinner at Milestones and this was taken from our table:


 I`m not a big shopper!... but I did find this neat! Stores right in the old buildings...

 
The last morning there we went for one more stroll, armed with camera...
 
this have a little milder climate then us, but flowers??... really!!!




 
 Right across the road from our hotel:
(never knew that I liked/appreciated old buildings...they sure are neat!)
 
 A time for everything...
ferry ride home!
 
We made a pit stop in Langley at The Running Room
to be suited up with a pair of runners each!!  About time!
Now we will be enjoying walking/jogging at home :)
 
And back with our two kidlets!!! 
Thanks Mom and Helen for having them :)  So appreciated!
 
And to the love of my life - Thanks so much for taking me
*(or coming along with me)*:)
on this trip! I love you (like crazy!!) and thoroughly
enjoy spending these fabulous moments together!
You are the best!

  1. Well, what can I say:), quality time away as a couple is SO important!!! Make time for it, whenever you can: seize the moment, you will never regret it... and the memories last and last... Glad you went, and glad we could have Ranen Mom
