A Picnic Adventure to Lonsdale Quay
A few weeks ago, we went on a field trip to Lonsdale Quay, where we took at least three modes of transportation: the bus, train and the Seabus! The journey was fun, exciting and surprisingly easy, especially the Seabus. For those who haven’t gone on the Seabus, it’s spacious with lots of seating and has windows for viewing from the back and front of the boat. It’s very kid friendly since they had enough room to stretch, walk around and look out the window.
Here are our friends holding onto the bars so well in the Canada Line Train.
Enjoying the view and the space we have around us! It was Emily’s first time on the Seabus!
The first attraction that took their interest was the water fountain. They loved all that this place had to offer.
We eventually made our way to the colourful pianos outside the marketplace! We spent some time making music on the pianos. Luckily, there were two pianos so no one had to wait their turn.
AJ suggested we go through the marketplace to look for some sprinkles for Buddings since we ran out. So we made our way in and explored the main floor on the search for sprinkles. Unfortunately we found no sprinkles but the delicious smells from the food stalls made our tummys grumble so we decided to start our picnic.
We set up our snacks on one of the picnic tables located outside the market, near the water. As we ate, we were treated with beautiful live music!
Once we were done, we made our way up the stairs to the Q sign, where we enjoyed the view.
Our group of friends were ready for another mini adventure so we went to the nearby playground before heading back to buddings.
Overall, this was a great day where we had lots to see and do. I hope to organize more field trips like this in the future! Join us on Tuesdays for our Summer Picnics Big Kids Club!
