Motorcycle Adventures

Today was day two in Nelson. We are staying in the Alpine Motel (which has the most friendly staff!)

Today was a nice relaxing day. We had a great breakfast at The Full Circle Cafe – they have all kinds of great food, in fact Nelson in general has the most amazing food!

After breakfast we went on a walk to do some shopping. There are some great shoe stores, but so far we both managed not to buy new shoes (that was hard). I found a great pair of fishermen’s Pants for $28, and Nicole found some great socks, and some fun metal water bottles. I think we managed to go though most of the stores on Baker street. I am amazed that such a small place has so many fantastic stores. The main drag is perfectly designed for shopping with wide sidewalks and great big trees lining the streets. Its like a calm less commercial version of Robson, but so much better.

We had lunch at a place called The Diner. It was good food – not as great as the other places we’ve eaten, but the quality of the food was excellent.

After lunch we did some more window shopping and then I went bacl to our Motel while Nicole went for a massage. This apparently involved a lot of elbows digging into Nicole’s bum, and a really hot towel.

Nicole joined me for a nap after her massage. When we woke up, we went back to the Red Fish for dinner (did I mentiom how great this place is!?). We had a great dinner. Now we are enjoying some more TV
in bed. Simple day – but really nice.
