It looks like the rain will be returning this afternoon, but this morning the sun is shining.  Our friends, Marilyn and Doug MacGillivray, who live just north of Nanaimo, just returned last night from a 2 week cruise to Alaska, but insisted they were not too tired to get together with us for lunch.  We had a great visit and heard all about their trip, and the 67-day cruise around South America and the Antarctic, that they’re taking in January.  These people are serious travellers.

By the time we got back to the marina, it was raining cats and dogs.  That didn’t stop me from getting a delicious scoop of chocolate peanut butter ice cream, however….yummy!
