My Trip with my Cousins, Mommy, Aunts & Grandmaman

Hi All,

Well I am due for another entry for our little man's blog. There have been many new memories for him the biggest was his trip to Vancouver in the middle of February with his Cousins, Mommy, Aunts and his Grandmaman.

They left Edmonton very early February 13, 2011 with Via Rail. He was so excited to finally get some time on his train. Kai was the super star of the train and met lots of people. He made a real buddy in Denis, the park car attendant, and was not scared to ask him a thousand questions. Poor Denis got a lot of "look at me Denis". It probably helped that Kai was the only guy in the group. He was very proud to sleep on the top bunk as well.

The purpose of the trip was to say a final good-bye to Opa. They rented cars in Vancouver (another Jeep and the super fast red car) to drive out to Horseshoe Bay. Kai was excited to see the ocean. Well, really to throw rocks in it. They said their good-bye under sunshine and a rainbow. As the ferry left Horseshoe Bay, Kai said that Opa was on the ferry going away. It really was perfect. During the afternoon of February 14, 2011, the kids went to the Vancouver Aquarium. Kai met some new friends that made a huge impression on him...the beluga whales. He called them all "my friends" and spent hours, literally, hanging out with them.

On another note we have registered Kai in his first sport. He is playing tim bits soccer this summer and his daddy is going to be the assistant coach. We are all looking forward to this and we will update with pictures as the time comes. As well he witnessed his first hockey game with his Dad. He saw the Edmonton Oil Kings this past saturday night. He did very well for the first twenty minutes or so, then the chaos began. He spent more time dancing in the aisle during the whistles than actually watching the game. He was a trooper though, he made it the whole night and it was a late one. Well, I cannot think of much more at this time. We will update with more posts in the future.
