Adventures Upon the High Seas and Race Car Driving?


We began our fine adventure on a beautiful sunny day. 4 women, one man 5 flotation devices (including Toby the floating turtle as shown in picture)to brave the frigid waters of the Vedder River. After many an adventure and only narrowly escaping dangers and certain death, we emerged unscathed (sort of). 1 flat Toby inside 1 sinking dinghy containing a very chilly Amy and Bonnie, 1 very torn, bright yellow floatie inside the only surviving water floating object containing the shivering Denise and Amber minus a pair of sandals lost downstream. Finally one flimsy, near sinking red floatie from the 1950's (it had been my grandpa's) with a very cold Kurt on it. All in all a very successful days on the high seas of Chilliwack.



At night we headed to the movie theatre to watch some real high seas advetures- Pirates of the Caribbean II. Although the consensus seems to be that the first one was better, we had our share of adventures as before the movie started we were distracted by some of our findings upon the Mission Raceway.
Denichi woman connected us with some famous people-
the ever famous (can't remember his name).






Amber would not miss up the opportunity for a picture with her all time racing hero!








Kurtis givin' the thumbs up!









Do I look excited or what? We've won the prize on having a way too fun day!
