Some unsurprising news ..

I don't think we really surprised anyone with the news, but Brad and I got engaged while on holiday in British Columbia. He really made me work for it though. I wish we could say that the sweat and red face was due to nerves, and my week knees to emotion, but after an hour-long uphill hike, I think it was more exertion than anything else.

We had gone to bed early the night before after a VERY long day flying out to Vancouver (details on that later), and so were up really early to hike the Stawamus Chief (pictured below).

I wish we could tell you that we made it all the way to the top, but we didn't even make the first peak as we wanted to go back and phone everyone and had to check out of the hostel we stayed in, but even going just up to the first rest stop was absolutely beautiful and definitely a great hike.
