Welcome Hailey and Katie

August 4 - 11, 2006: Ashley and Grant were very excited to welcome Mary, Ian, Katie & Hailey who flew in from Ottawa for a visit. Ashley and the girls were good friends in Ottawa and she was really looking forward to spending some time with them again. We played tour guides and went on the Lobstermen Tour in Lunenburg, to Rainbow Haven Beach and down to the waterfront among other things. Unfortunately, this year's Natal Day fireworks changed its positioning from last year so our strategic viewing area wasn't so strategic! Our guests also went on their own to Bras d'Or Lakes in Cape Breton for a few days which didn't present them with the greatest weather. Isn't that a big surprise - not!
