What I Did On My Summer Vacation

11/9/2011

My ideal vacation is isolation, reading, writing, drinking wine, sun, heat, foliage, grazing/snacking on roasted veggies, fresh breads, fresh fruit, potato chips, popcorn and taco chips.  All this I did quite a bit of over the summer  in a stay-cation way.

Then there is the travel away vacation.  This I just returned from.  There was much travelling – long hours in the car on highways and ferries and city streets and winding roads.

 There was a stay with relatives.  Which is not my favorite set-up, but my niece
and her husband were so generous and welcoming it was a lovely stay.
There was being invited to virtual strangers’ lakeside home for a barbeque.  Again, overwhelming generosity and graciousness.  Lovely guests. Stunning view.  Thanks Christine & Falco!

There was an event entailing visiting, and greeting and meeting and attending.  People are most entertaining.  I enjoyed watching and listening and engaging with people I know and love and people I will never see again.

This is the Port Alberni Salmon Festival.  Now, what was a vegan(ish) such as myself doing here?  Well...my brother-in-law is the President of the event.  He and his family made us feel so welcome and took very good care of us.  The event, sponsored by the Kiwanis, which my brother-in-law is also the President of..raises huge funds for community projects and facilities.  The festival also puts money back into Salmon conservation and repopulation.

There was touristing.  The getting of photos to commemorate, "I was here doing this thing."  So much to see in just one city!

And so much great food!  I was able to eat and eat because I walked and walked...that's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

And my most cherished time was with 'the kids.'  They are so much fun and living the life!

I feel rested, inspired, humbled, grateful.  Getting away from it all and doing something completely different has expanded my view on many levels. 
Although I am heading back into what could be a routine, I have fresh ideas and attitude to bring it.
Tell me about your summer vacation.

    On my journey back to wholeness I have explored many modalities and can honestly say the What Now Life Coaching session was one of the most illuminating (yet non-invasive) interactions I've had.

    Jennifer used an interesting variety of tools to further guide me towards my "North Star" (soul's calling) and I walked away feeling grounded, comforted, validated and inspired.
