Summer vacation in BC

The Olsen farm at sunset. Hornby Is.

Our Canada trip is coming to an end tomorrow. It's been a completely packed schedule of family visits. Austen met most of his uncles and aunts and spent lots of time with his grandparents. We've had some great visits with friends we haven't seen in years.

Aside from the thrill of seeing our loved ones we have been really enjoying music on this trip. We saw the Good Lovelies, the Foggy Hogtown Boys, H'Sao, Marie-Josée Lord and Anton Kuerti at the Hornby Festival and Bruce Cockburn and The Bills at the Butchart Gardens concert series. Live outdoor concerts were one of those things we rarely had access to in Singapore so we've been on a bit of a music binge. We're lucky our little guy is still pretty zen even while teething. He's happy to be dragged along to just about anything any time of day or night.
