Happy Birthday, Mom!

In honour of mother's 61st birthday, mom, dad, and I took a drive out to the Wellbrook winery in Delta for a wine tasting. it was the first time for all of us to visit this particular winery and after sipping raspberry and cranapple wines along with pomegranate juice, it gave me an incentive to check out the other wineries in the Fraser Valley.

The duck estuary was the next point of attraction. The ducks were as happy as they could be in the pond and fattening up with the seeds and bread crumbs people were giving them.

We moved on to the London Community Farm in Richmond. This historic farm along Dyke Road had its similarities to the Stewart Farm House in South Surrey with its old rusty farm equipment on display and an orchard of fruit trees surrounding the house. The late afternoon sun kissed the horizon and cast a lovely shade of tangerine upon the earth's surface during our walk about and gave me plenty of opportunity to take astounding pictures.

Sushi was the order of the the evening and mom had placed an order a few hours ahead for pick up at a place called Sushi House in Richmond. We brought it back home with us and were very pleased with the quality and price with this place. Apparently, they don't use farmed salmon either so this was a plus for all of us.
