whilst we were on Grouse Mtn we watched the Bird of Prey show. These birds are amazing ..
this bird was my favourite - the American Bald Eagle. What an incredible bird, my photo doesn't do him justice. He was breathtaking in flight.

We stayed in Horseshoe Bay and the kids loved walking along the shore exploring. We came along this rock island bathed in beautiful sunlight. The kids loved climbing it and we picnicked at the top. We're not sure of the name so we called it Piggles Rock!

We took a road trip up to Vancouver BC (about 7 hour drive). As with all road trips they start out fun and slowly turn into a 'how much further' trip!
We did our schooling in the morning and took the kids exploring in the afternoon.
One of my favourite places was Capilano Suspension Bridge in the Capilano Canyon.
A little off the ground (80m) and 150m long over raging waters (not so much raging but more like medium flowing) in the Canyon. That first step onto the bridge sets is swaying and your heart racing but it was a wonderful feeling being so high up among the trees and birds!!
Here are a few photos.
I loved the Totem Poles - rather than photograph the whole thing I thought I'd go for the closeups!
My only problem is that I can't decide if I like the colour version or the black and white.
I also tried something a little different.
