FINALLY!!!!

FINALLY! I decided that I was going to resize all the pictures and see if that would work and guess what? It did! So sit back and enjoy some of the experiences and moments I share with you from my trip to BC!


Here's Leah, Erin, myself and Jen at Gwellem Lake. The water was freezing but we still had a good time. There were a few waves made when people in motorboats would go by so Erin and I would swim out and 'catch the waves' it was pretty pathetic really but it was still a hoot in the end. Then a lady let us use her canoe. We didn't have life jackets as you can see but she said "oh don't worry! My boys TRIED to tip the canoe yesterday and couldn't. It's impossible to tip" So off we went paddling into the horizon. Erin was giving us directions and telling us which side to paddle on "paddle on the left side" she says so we all do that, leaning to that side when a wave hits us and SLASH! ...we tipped the canoe! Figures...so we spent a fair bit of time trying to swim back while pulling the canoe along with us and making sure the paddles didn't float away. But all in all it was lots of fun.

Erin and I at Kinusou Falls. Wow that place was AMAZING! It's hard to describe it, but the most amazing thing there was the huge waterfall, it's narrower than Niagra Falls but it's actually taller than Niagra Falls so that was cool. All six of us hiked down to the bottom of the waterfall - which wasn't easy but it was well worth it as you can see in the picture. Although it's so much better in person.

Jen and I at Quality Falls together. ...no she's not taller than me she's just standing on a bigger rock....


This was the tower that Erin, Leah, Jen, Mr. Peats and myself quadded/four wheeled up to. If you look closely you'll see that WAY down there there's a small town, well that's Tumbler Ridge where we quadded/four wheeled from. It was a blast!


Here's Erin and me quadding/four wheeling up to the tower. There was a HUGE ... "puddle" I guess you could say that we drove through full speed. We did it a couple of times so we were completely drenched afterwards.


This is Erin and me in the tree in my backyard when they came to Regina on the last week of June.


Here's me, Erin, Leah and Jen after an amazing time quadding. We went through SO MANY puddles and so much mud we were soaked! But it was a blast. And bonus, Erin showed me how to drive a quad...oh the things you learn while at the Peats.


Here's us at Quality Falls. This place was awesome, there was a huge water fall and you could 'wade in the water' ... wow I could break out into song! Plus the water was clean and fresh so you could drink it too!


Erin and me at Flatbed Falls. That place was awesome there were a bunch of mini falls and a long river that you could swim in. There were big rocks that you could dive off of and even a waterfall that you could go behind. It was kerrrayzeeee, being under a waterfall feels so cool! You can hear tons of rushing water over you and you feel like you're under water but you can breathe. It's sooo much fun!

So that was my trip, I have probably 200 pictures but I chose only few to share with you. I also have some really funny movies too so yay for new beginnings!
