Day 40 - Terrace

Nothing like sleeping in a really comfortable bed after 6 weeks on road. Today is one of relaxation and visiting with more relatives. First we made our way to my cousins new house to see their beautiful baby girl Aurora. After that we went to downtown Terrace to see my Uncle Tom's new expansion to his dental practice which includes flat screen TV's everywhere, literally. In the afternoon we went to the Terrace Hot Springs, which I had visited when I was here 12 years ago. Unfortunately it doesn't appear that much updating, or maintenance for that matter, has taken place in those 12 years and the place is looking a little rough. Nonetheless we had a good time and there wasn't any lines for the slides, not that it's difficult to understand why. We came back home for a great salmon (and chicken for Nicola) BBQ with the family and had the pleasure of watching Aurora try to put some chocolate ice cream in her mouth, though her face and hair seemed much easier accomplishments. Tomorrow we leave early in the morning to drive to Hyder, Alaska and are hoping to see some Grizzly Bears.

I'd say about 10% made it in her mouth, oh well she had fun anyways

Nicola and Beanie are going to be pretty hard to separate tomorrow morning
