Trip to the maritimes involves

Day 1
Warm spring days. 
Kayaking down the Nashwaak
Having tuna fish sandwhiches and cookies. 
A trip to moms favourite store. 
Find out that mom was driving a car with a loose wheel...after the fact
Then a favourite supper that dad makes involving pork chops, sour cream and apples. Yum!
Go quading around the trees to see dad's work. 
Top it off with, "do you want to build a snowman". 

Day 2 
Early start to the morning. 
Cousin Jason drops by and I see him for a second as before I had to leave. 
Off to the market with Aunt Cheryl and mom. 
Stop for breakfast of a lox bagel. 
See moms cousin Kim, Beth and Amy. 
Walk downtown as the sun is out. 
Gather groceries for the day. 
Return home and nap. 
Then have lobster, garlic toast, and salad topped with butterscotch pie. 
And because I really love to eat,
Convince mom to buy a whirly pop and make popcorn for the movie, "about time". 

Day 3
Early again. I am starting to get pretty sleepy. 
Stop in Harvey. 
Saw my great great grandfathers and mothers home 
where my great grandma Eva Tracey lived. 
It is now called the kubbyhole. 
Drive to Bocabec.  
Baby shower for a little one and my cousin Heidi. 
Saw cousin Beth and aunt Beth. 
Loveliness. 
Serious movie of August: Osage County. 
Good night. 

Day 4
Sleep in finally!
Doughnuts in jam cause that's what you do when you are on vacation and visiting your parents. 
Drive into Fredericton to see Nan. 
Show off your dog. 
Speak of an incident of a small toddler (I bet she was cute) eating a prized tomato of her grandfathers way back in the 80s....any guesses?
Checked out the largest pothole In NB, although I feel AB still can give a run for the money. 
Fish, fiddleheads, salad, and spicy potatoes. 
Off to Zumba....because did mention I bought another butterscotch pie. Yum!
Finish the night with dancing with the stars. 

Day 5
Rainy hazy day. 
Watched a bit of tv. 
Made cinnamon buns. 
Went for a walk in the woods and saw the twin (trees). 
Went to the city to see the movie Godzilla. 
Facetimed the family at home. 
And found a horrible new ipad game to be addicted to. 

Day 6
Rain comes again. 
So it's a lazy hazy day of leftovers. 
Talking. 
Lounging. 
TV watching. 
Then out to dinner with the Robertson clan for dinner. 
Mini reunion with the cousins (without Jimi, we missed you!)
Good family talks with games in the restaurant. 
Good way to end!

Love
