Views of Vancouver from Cypress Mountain in West Vancouver. That’s Mt. Baker in Washington state showing faintly in the lower photo. The small image size doesn’t do justice to the amazing panorama.
This is a quick wave to say we are happily busy with visitors from Europe for ten days. Husband’s cousin and his wife arrived on Monday and it’s been non-stop sightseeing, eating, talking and laughing. Will be back with photos and maybe a story or two when all is quiet here.

Not sure whether my comment was sent; I inadvertently broke my internet connection. Anyway, hope you all have a wonderful time on this visit.
The pictures are wonderful. I’m delighted to know you’re having such a delightful time with your guests.
The views of the city are beautiful. Keep on enjoying your visitors!
Thanks all, we are indeed having a wonderful time. After a brief rest, we are heading out for dinner at a new-to-us restaurant.
Glad you and your friends are having such a wonderful time. Looks like the weather gods are with you, too.
Ah, lovely! Enjoy! I am crawling through my little autumn mine field of duties and have so far read the book ms. twice and not started any judging on the two contests. Ack. Maybe by the time your guests depart…
I hope this message comes through. I lost your address, and now this comment-box has lost me!
Anyway: I tell you, in case you haven’t noticed, that a good Finnish theatre group is coming in near future to visit that island there (Malcolm, was it?) with the story of Sointula. They’re supposed to meet the original Sointula people there at the same time as there are performances.
This comment-box tells to tell where you were born…
Love the framing of the photos with the beautiful pines. Have fun together with your visitors!
Thanks, Hattie, Marly, Ripsa, Rouchswalwe! I am sorry to be late with my response. We have been traveling together and returned home just last night. Moments ago I have said an almost-tearful goodbye to our visitors and must now unpack, take care of the garden, do laundry and more.
I will post about our trip soon! Yes, Ripsa, I know of the Finnish group and will have much to write about that too!
Marja-Leena,
I hope the post-visitors bug has now departed as well! Isn’t that the way with wonderful times–we often get a little kick in the rear afterward.
Vancouver always looks so enticing in your pictures. It has been a long time since I was there…
Marly, yes, that kick after… why is that? Too much excitement, too little sleep on strange beds? The cold bug isn’t finished with me yet.
Vancouver has grown a lot – time for a revisit! Welcome, would love to meet!
