had lunch at Silver Heights Restaurant again today…

we had seen an item on the menu the last time we were there and wanted to come back and try it…

today there was no aquasize so we decided to go for lunch instead…

we had a Duke of Yorkie – shaved baron of beef, fried carmelized onion, mozzarella, horseradish mayo, on a giant Yorkshire pudding, served with au jus… with a shared side of onion rings…

it was delicious;-)…

as I was waiting for my ride to the pool for aquasize, I took a few photos…

this one is the Inukshuk in a circle in the snow… I need to find another piece of limestone to finish it off better, lol…

then a shot of the snow on the cedar branches at the front door…

we were happy to be going because last week we missed due to the Olympics, lol…

we were in the water for about ten minutes when an alarm went off… we were told to evacuate the pool and then to head to the lounge at the entrance and not to stop for our clothes or other items…

besides our class, there were at least two classes of school kids, as well as those who had been in the gym… quite a few people…

during all that time the alarms were ringing and lights were flashing… after about ten minutes a firetruck arrived and the firefighters headed to the back of the building…

another ten minutes or so went by and finally the lights and ringing stopped…

we headed back to the change rooms, dressed and left the building… as a treat we picked up bagels…

mine was quite delicious;-)…

also meant I made it home in time to watch the women’s free skate…

continuity…

went to our last aquasize for the year on Tuesday…

the weather was warm, which always makes going out more fun;-)…

it is always a great time, even if we are worn out at the end of the class, lol…

we’ve had to miss a few times due to other activities, and we are going to change to Thursdays in the new year which means we shouldn’t miss any…

being there every week will also provide some continuity and keep us more fit…

Wednesday morning, as I was waiting for my ride to aquasize, I realized that the trees across the creek were covered in leaves, woohoo;-)…

it was a beautiful day and I had a hot tub in the middle of the afternoon…

can’t even remember the last time I’ve done that…

what a treat… I am doing my best to enjoy every minute of these delightful days…

we went to Aquasize today… we were happy because we found the lockers that returned your quarter… I’d put all my possessions into the locker, before I realized that there was no safety pin on the key…

I had a towel above the locker, so I placed the key inside it and saved having to change lockers… when we left I advised the front desk staff and they will have it fixed…

and I wore my sandals for the first time… actually had on socks when we went but didn’t wear them on the way home;-)…
