Busy Saturday, Mellow Sunday

On Saturday we walked to the downtown area, got information about doing a DIY trip to Butchart Gardens, and walked around the downtown area.  We did a little shopping, had a delicious wor won ton soup lunch at Fan Tan in Chinatown, and generally got the lay of the land.  We walked, walked, and walked some more.  We grabbed dinner at a food truck and then went grocery shopping before walking home.  I think we walked over 8 miles.  The weather was pretty nice.

It's Sunday, and the forecast is for rain.  Jim had a headache, the weather was bad, and football was on TV.  It looked like a relaxing day at home for us.  Mid-afternoon the weather looked like it was clearing up.  We talked about walking downtown to get dinner, but then it started raining again.  We went next door to the Blue Crab.  We both had seafood chowder, which included 3 clams still in the shell.  I've never had it like that before.  It was delicious.  We shared a small plate of crab risotto and a creme brulee.  Yummy and just the right amount of food.  We went home for wine and beer.  

I can't wait for tomorrow!
