Time to leave the Sunshine Coast after nearly a month. We are heading over to Vancouver Island for another house and petsit of over three weeks, but this time it is a convuluted route.
We are taking an afternoon ferry to Vancouver tomorrow evening and camping out one night with friends. Then Paul is driving me to the airport where I get on a plane for the North of BC to do a few days work. Then he gets on another bigger ferry and heads to the island.
Paul will set up at our new place and I will fly back to the island the next day. Sometimes the plans get a bit convuluted, but it all works out in the end.
It always takes us about a day to pack up and put the place right.
When we leave we:
Wash all bedding and towels
Clean the fridge
Take out the garbage and recycling
Leave milk and bread for the owners
Set the pets up with lots of food and water
Pack all our stuff up
Put everything back where it came from
Leave a note telling about the time we were here
Give the plants a last water and mist
Collect the last post
Take all our books and videos back to the library
Stock up fresh firewood for the owners
Sweep off the leaves or clean up snow
We nearly always forget something, but we pick it up later.
So farewell Roberts Creek and hello Metchosin on Vancouver Island.
