Home from a delightful visit to Saltspring Island. West of the Moon Toys is a great place to shop all year around for the children in your life. And they have an awesome selection of books for kids and teens. They still have a few copies of Island Santa left if you weren’t able to make it in while I was there yesterday. It was lovely to have writer, Margriet Rurrs drop by to pick up a copy for her grandchildren. She took me over to Harlans Chocolate and Gelato for what she insisted is ” the best hot chocolate in the world” and even my coffe-loving friend Cathy T. had to agree that she was right. I love being able to combine work with a visit to friends.
I wasn’t able to stay long enough to catch the Santa Boat, but I did enjoy some of the holiday decorations…see if you can find Santa in this firetruck…
