Week 1 in Canada

  

These are a few photos I have taken since moving to Steveston, Canada. I have yet to take photos of the harbor, there are some wonderful whitewashed boats.

On our first night we dined in an Irish pub where I spotted my first Halloween display. A group of pumpkins lined outside then inside was a small table with assortments of harvest/October/Halloween nicnacs. At a table sat a little man made from straw.

Over the next few days we saw more and more Halloween displays!

 

This is a checklist from the supermarket a few days before thanksgiving.

We got invited to 2 thanksgiving dinners, both were great.

At one I had a sweet potato and walnut mash- delicious

This is Lister, she is a lizard who lives with us in a little tropical aquarium.

I like picking her up each day and stroking her little head.

sometimes she closes her eyes with relaxation

Our little patio with its little iron table and chairs- very bistro. 

it will be nicer to dine out here when it gets warmer again

 This is a Halloween shop called 'spirit', it is insane! there were so many models of witches, zombies and ghouls. They even had zombie babies which were very freaky. The several smoke machines round the shop gave it a misty fog.
