Maidei goes on a world tour-Part 1 of the Bicycle Mystery Tour

[Grog]

So Maidei has been hanging out with me for a few weeks. Unfortunately I was not riding very much, but she managed to come with me on a couple of trips. We had good times at home, too.

My husband was in a cycling race up a local big hill, Cypress Mountain. I drove ahead of the pack to meet him at the top (where he finished a nice 7th, just behind a few pros and his nemesis on hills... a chocolatier - not kidding), but stopped along the way to take a couple of shots of the nice views. I did not have my SLR unfortunately, so the shallow depth of field does not do justice to the scenery. The first pic shows Vancouver's downtown in the background, while the second features the Strait of Georgia, with Vancouver Island (where Maidei is headed next) in the distance.

Then yesterday I took her with me as I joined my club in a ride to Porpoise Bay Provincial Park, on the Sunshine Coast. Although it's technically on the mainland, one must take a ferry to get there. Maidei took a bit of sun on the upper deck, and then again at the Porpoise Bay sandy beach.

But really, Maidei has been spending a lot of time at home with me. I received her from ShootingStar as I was in the throes of my pregnancy's first trimester fatigue, and had to pause my riding season. So she hung out with me in a big fat chair, reading some appropriate literature.

She is now headed to visit BlueJellyBean, thanks to Canada Post!

Who will be next?
