Good Bye to Comox - Birthday Party & Packing

Getting Ready to leave Comox

Today is Rhianna's early 10th birthday party. A 1970's themed party complete with ABBA, Saturday Night Fever, disco ball and tie die shirts. Then the last of the packing and off to Pender Island on Sunday for a few days to visit our friends there. Rhianna and James are looking forward to a day at school on Pender on Tuesday before we start off across Canada on Wednesday.

Sand Dollars & curly shells are packed and ready to be traded for spending money. A bottle of Pacific water is also on board to be ceremonially tipped into the Atlantic, 6 weeks from now.
