Site #92 - $205 week rate (x2) Note: $42/night
The 'Valet Parking' is a welcome bonus as the sites are pretty tight. Each site is paved with small patch of grass and cedar dividers that have 'cut-outs' for neighbours slide. So yes... cozy! We set up camp and Kari and the kids came for supper.
On Thursday we did some biking and picked up a few groceries and Friday was spent at Dave and Elizabeth's for back yard wedding preparations.
And Saturday was the 'Big Day'.
We dropped by Dave on Sunday, then headed to Kari and Gerry's for barbecued salmon with Doris, Smitty, Mike, Darryl and Deanne.
On Monday we wandered around the New West Quay shopping area and went for a walk around Burnaby Lake on the approximate 4 km trail. Such a great wooded park area that helps you forget you are actually smack dab in the middle of a huge city.
We did some shopping at Metro Town Mall on Tuesday then headed to Kari's for a few hours. Back at the RV we had shrimp stirfry and went for a soak in the hot tub.
On Wednesday, Kari and the kids came for lunch and supper. (Gerry sky-trained out after work.) It was a day of crafts, walks and time at the playground.
Our digital camera had suffered some damage when Ron tried to put in a new memory card at Dave's wedding. Luckily there was a repair shop near Gerry's office and he dropped it off for us earlier in the week. It was ready for pick Thursday. We visited Gerry at the office, picked up the camera, went for lunch and wandered around Granville Island shops. We enjoyed a roast beef dinner with Dave and Elizabeth.
Friday was lunch and a visit with Uncle Walter. We shopped Ikea then headed home for supper. After supper we sat with the kids while Kari and Gerry had dinner and an evening out.
After lunch on Saturday, Doug and Rina came to the campground for a swim then we all went to Kari's for barbecued burgers.
Sunday was rainy and we headed to Richard's for barbecued salmon.
On Monday, we once again hiked around Burnaby Regional Park with Kari and the kids and spent time at the campground. Off to Dave's for seafood pasta.
We shopped Superstore and Walmart on Tuesday and Kari and kids were back out for a visit. Again, Gerry took the train and Dave came by after work. We had chicken kebabs for dinner. Eliz was busy with work negotiations so wasn't able to join us.
We said our good-byes to all and left the park by 10 am. In the wind. Highway 3 was a little rough and we encountered a few steep climbs.
