Spanish Banks Pt 2

Another bike ride and a picnic at Spanish Banks. I brought the blanket and most of the food this time so I had to ask Peter for rope so I could strap my backpack to my rear rack!

Picnic at Spanish Banks

I biked down to Spanish Banks with Peter to have a very nice picnic on the beach. I was expecting it to be a quiet location but it turned out to be full of dogs who wanted to eat all our food. There was one psycho dog in particular who wouldn't leave my side even with its owner pulling at it. He just kept staring at me with his crazy eyes.

We did a lot of people watching and a lot of eating.  My favourite part was when this police officer rode down on his ATV and stopped to chat with the lifeguard. He was totally posing for my photo!

Picnic

I'm lucky that Noel lives so close to me (about three blocks away), because we always end up having impromptu meetups and dinners together. We were planning on watching the outdoor showing of Spaceballs at Stanley Park, but we ended up deciding to walk over to Kits beach and having a picnic instead. I brought scrabble and he brought the paella salad and sangria. The sangria was so good because it tasted like juice. Oh man, it was not a good day at work the next day....

171: PICNIC

Oops it's been a week since I last updated. I haven't been very good at keeping up with my project 365 this year. What can I say, life got in my way. I just haven't felt like taking my camera around for the past week. But today I went on a picnic with the girls on a rare sunny day in Vancouver and it was just what I needed.

The heat got to us after awhile and we started to feel sluggish in the coolness of Dil's condo....

But eventually we made it to West 4th to catch Aidan Knight perform at the Khatsalano festival before heading out to Refuel for dinner. They screwed up my order so i got two half orders of steak salad instead of 1 full order, which meant 2 extra ounces of steak for me. Yay!
