We woke up at six thirty. Charlie was already up but Alex was still asleep. I had a shower and got dressed. I finished packing then I got Alex up, got him to have a shower and get dressed. Alex didn’t want anything for breakfast he said he wanted to eat at the ferry.
We left for the ferry at eight fifteen, we had planned to leave at eight o’clock. Charlie wasn’t too happy about that but there’s nothing we could do now. We got to the ferry terminal at eight fifty five and we were able to get on the ferry. The ferry left at nine o’clock, so we were pretty lucky!
When we got off the ferry we drove to Parksville and phoned Allison from there. The operator wouldn’t take our number for a third number billing so we had to pay about three dollars in coins by the time we finished the call. Allison said that they were feeling better but that Davis had an ear infection and was on medication. We decided that it should be okay and Alex was so looking forward to seeing Kurt.
Davis’s father met us in Port Alberni in front of one of the motels, then we followed him back to his house. He doesn’t live too far from town and he lives on farmland. Quite a nice place with chickens and a big garden. Davis grew up on the farm which surprised us both, we thought he grew up in Vancouver.
Allison had a lot of stuff to eat. After we had eaten the boys took us out to see the chickens, then they picked blueberries.
We left at three o’clock and checked into our motel. We went to the Salmon Derby to have smoked salmon, not exactly my kind of meal but Charlie liked it. Alex said he wouldn’t eat salmon so we went and got a hamburger and corn on the cob which wasn’t that good. It took Charlie about twenty minutes before he could get his salmon and then Alex said he wanted some!
After we had all eaten we walked around and I got stung by something. I didn’t see it so I thought my arm just hurt. My arm got all red and a blister appeared. We left and came back to the motel. When we got back I felt strange so Charlie suggested that I go to emergency. When we got there, there were quite a few people there already. We had to wait quite awhile before a doctor a came to look at my arm. He said I was having a normal reaction to the sting and he would give me a prescription. The nurse gave me the pills and I couldn’t believe it the doctor and prescribed prednisone to take. Alex said that’ll make you really hungry!
I went to bed not long after I took the pills, they made me so drowsy.
