Surprise!

 Not quite unexpectedly, we had guests for the weekend. One of those delightful, longed for, but not often happening reconnection of friends made in one location showing up in another. We got to spend the weekend with friends we'd made in Penang!

They were wonderfully easy guests, fitting right into our household and weekend plans. So much so, we didn't even think to take pictures very much...

Saturday was loud board games and another surprise of a campfire evening hosted by a couple in our church. 

Sunday a restful morning followed by afternoon church and an evening picnic supper by the river. 

Monday we all took as a work day, as life doesn't quit when you're traveling or friends visit. But it ended with Chocolat Favori chocolate dipped ice creams (the best ever anywhere!) and a visit to a homeschool moms' evening. 

Tuesday we spent the day at the Science and Tech Museum, breaking for a sumptuous lunch of poutine and shawarma - yes, from the same place! - before saying goodbye just before supper.

An all too short a visit, and yet just right somehow. Thank you God for such a gift!
