Today is the second full day of the Maritime Festival. Dad has to be 'on duty' from 11 am - 5 pm to man his vessel. The crowds started off lighter than the first day but filled to bursting as the day went on.
Dominic has a nasty cold so we left him at home with Grandma today while Alex, Andrew and I took in the many sites of the festival.
Later that afternoon, Alex and I take the Sky Train to downtown Vancouver so that I can pick up a pile of proctored exam papers that need marking. Summer session final exams were held this weekend. Guess what I will be doing tomorrow!?

| One large building was dedicated to the arts. There were live painting sessions, model boats, sailor's Valentine's displays, carving demonstrations and more. I would not have the patience needed to make this intricate lace! |

The Beeksma's and Bomhof's drop by. Nice!

| Getting closer to those exams. . .. . |
 |
| Alex picks some clothes for himself. First time shopping at a 'real' clothing store. "I would like some shorts that are not gym shorts, Mama." Turning 14 next month. Time flies. |
