So, I did a bit of yarn shopping (and redeemed some pre-birthday gifts.)
The local Alaska yarn stores were very nice, but the knitters were a bit competitive to get to the yarn–there were just more of us than yarn (which is why my mother, aunt, and I strategized and beat the rest of the cruisers to the Beehive Wool Shop in Victoria. Totally worth it.)
There are notes on the picture if you click on it.

That’s totally what Kaity and I did last year – beat everyone else and shopped while they were touring the gardens and having tea.
I’m SOOOOO jealous – I wish I could have gone this year!!
