Beautiful Blooms

My mom left for Vancouver Thursday morning. After she left home, she realized that she had no map. She continued on her journey, as she didn't want to waste time going home for the maps. She figured she could find her way to Vancouver and then to Emily and Peter's apartment. She arrived safely at around 8 pm. as planned.

As my mom drove over the Rockies, it was still brown everywhere until she reached Hope, British Columbia. Suddenly, it became all lushly green. It was like driving from one season into another. Vancouver is beautiful with cherry blossoms all over the city. Many other flowers are also in bloom creating multitudes of spring colors.

Emily is now staying home awaiting for the arrival of her baby. While my mom was still in Edmonton, she was too busy to get excited. Now that she is in Vancouver and seeing how big Emily is, her excitement starts to mount.
