Tourists in our own neighbourhood

My friend Shannon is here for a few days from Toronto with her fiancé Sunir. It was a beautiful afternoon so we decided to walk down to Granville Island and explore. We started at the Kids Market and of course spent ages at the puppet store.

And one thing leads to another!

When we decided it was time to be grownups again, we ventured off to the market and drooled over the yummy fruit.

cherries

raspberries - golden and otherwise!

Alex's favourite - the fresh pasta

fishy delicacies...notice the chocolate sardines in the middle at the top!

Having successfully tempted our salivary glands, we wandered over to Rogers chocolates and then to the Sandbar for a yummy dinner followed by crepes...mmm...food!
