Happy Summer!! Can you believe June’s already ending?! Why does Summer fly by – other than the obvious “time flies when you’re having fun” reason?
This birthday has been nothing short of the BEST! Drew told me he was planning a camping weekend and surprising me with the location. That would have been enough to make it an amazing celebration! Turns out there was no camping whatsoever! He gave me just enough hints to allow me to pack. That’s the toughest part, right?! We left early Friday, drove all of 5 minutes to Kenmore Air on South Lake Union where he checked us in for our intimate flight on a seaplane to Victoria, British Columbia!
Flights over the Puget Sound are breath taking! If you ever have the chance to hop on a Kenmore Air seaplane, DO IT! As if I wasn’t surprised enough already, while we were flying, Drew passed me the sweetest note wishing me a happy birthday and telling me what our relationship means to him. As soon as I finished reading, there he was with a ring asking me to be his wife! Eeeeeeek! Yes, yes, yes.
Once we landed in Victoria, we walked to the Chateau Victoria where we stayed for the weekend. Then the surprises continued! First, a couples massage! Yes, please! After we got cleaned up, we headed out to explore the adorable city. We grabbed a yummy seafood lunch at Red Fish, Blue Fish (don’t worry, the line moves fairly quick!). We walked to the Fisherman’s Wharf where there are adorable floating restaurants and houses. Such a cute little place! There’s even a floating sushi restaurant! Then, we enjoyed some beers while we listened to music at a venue set up to celebrate Canada’s 150th year! Canada Day is July 1st, so there’s a lot going on to celebrate Canada 150!
