Summer Break has arrived...Tennis anyone?

How do you do this?
Not really in our tennis whites, but hey, you have to start somewhere. Lessons at False Creek Community Centre....lots of fun!!!

A few Days in Seattle June 30th and July 1st, 2006

Woodland Park Zoo... a favourite place for Max and Bruno. They love visiting the elephants and the gorillas.



The Seattle Children's Museum. Bruno, the musician, loved playing the instruments and singing ...

The Seattle Public Library, probably the coolest library in North America. Designed by Rem Koolhaas, the children's section has bright pink walls, and lots of great stuff to do and read with the kids. Just look at this great space!!!!!
Also, some pictures of the Aquarium, which was fun, but not as wonderful as the Vancouver Aquarium. Sorry, Seattle!!!!
Look at the beautiful library...I was in love with it!!!!
