The wonderful Kirsten and I met in the middle of March for a final pre-baby fling. There really wasn't much flinging going on; our plans for a sojourn to warmer climes was down-scaled to a few days in a campervan moseying our way around Vancouver Island. After we collected the campervan we realised we weren't the target audience anymore....
I'm not sure if we were embarrassed, mortified or highly amused....really a mix of many emotions. Bemused often surfaced as we quickly forgot about the garishness once coseyed up inside the van and couldn't understand why we received so many odd looks and stares.
Much of our time together was spent seeking out warm coffee shops and restaurants where we could wile away the time chatting or reading and just indulging in the joy of familiar friendship. It wasn't long enough...
