It seems like it has been ages since my wife and I had a chance to get away and go on a trip together.  Sure, we take trips with the kids, but sometimes it is just nice to spend time alone.  In fact, I would almost argue that it is an important part to having a healthy marriage.

So, my wife and I have finally found a way that we can have a romantic weekend: her mother will come and babysit the kids.  Though it will be short, we are looking forward to the peace and quiet.

We have decided that Price Rupert will be our destination of choice.  I was there as a child and it was one of the most amazing places that I ever visited and I wanted to share it with her.  There are also some great deals on coast accommodation at this time of year, so I know we will be able to keep costs down.

There are a few tourist attractions that I want to show her and maybe we’ll have a chance to take the ferry to Queen Charlotte Islands and check out some of the places I visited in my youth.  Even if we don’t see anything it will just be nice to spend some time with the love of my life alone for a change.
