On Saturday we went to Butchart Gardens. They were spectacular. We were all in awe.
Riding the carousel in the gardens
Abe took this picture of one of his favorite trees that makes it look like wallpaper (at least that’s what came to my mind).
The rose garden was beautiful and so, so crowded.

Then we spent a long time in the gift shop. Abe was with the kids outside and met the sweetest man there. I met him when I came out, and then later that day ran into them again at the hotel we went for high tea! They were very kind and made us feel peaceful.
Down time before high tea
Then we went home to regroup before high tea at the Fairmont Empress Hotel.
Mary pooped in her pants during high tea and that was very stressful. She had a ton of accidents until the last week and a half of the trip, when we started mandating poop time for her. That solved the problem. But until then it was really stressful.After high tea running around in the back of the Royal BC museum.Abe and Clarissa taking another selfie.
After this we all went back to the hotel, played in the pool (well I stayed out) and went to bed. It was a long day!
