THIS IS OUR NEW HOME!

OUR STORY OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS.....
One fine sunny day we said good-bye to the Ripley clan in Kelowna...

and proceeded to clean out Janelle and Rene's mini camper....

we lined up our luggage for the boys....

to pack into the camper....

and made our way to Vancouver to catch the ferry over to Vancouver Island...

Along the way we stopped to take photos of the....

pretty trees....


We found a truck stop to sleep in near the ferry terminal with this spectacular view...
We managed to squeeze the 4 of us into the camper....

and woke up to this chipper morning...

Reon even got breakfast in bed.....

We boarded the ferry to Vancouver Island at 9am...

Janelle and I enjoyed watching the wild life...

and these good looking blokes.....

Of course we took a few scenery shots....


and drank hot chocolate to pass the time...

We meet Jim at the ferry terminal and he drove us to his house where he had the camper parked.....

We checked it out...



liked what we saw, went into Jims house and had a coffee with him and sealed the deal.

We celebrated with this delicious concoction...

and topped it off with a cream egg (They were on sale at Walmart so we brought 50 of them. It was a bargain that we couldn't pass by!)

Anyways we are quite stoked with our little home. We're in Vancouver at the moment hoping to sell Janelle and Rene's truck and mini me camper and then head to Kamloops to pick up our bikes then on to Whistler to find some work.
Here are a few more photos of our beast...










Cherry blossoms for Mel and who ever else enjoys them...
