Summer Where Am I? ~ 5

Congrats to Kristina for correctly guessing the our 4th Where Am I? of the summer! Check out the Where Am I? page to see the winning answer & one of my very favourite places in Vancouver!!
The inspiration for our 5th & final Summer Where Am I? clue comes from a fair which opened in 1910 with an admission cost of only 50 cents! I was there last week with my bridesmaids, visiting all the animals & watching Boyz II Men in the amphitheatre. What a great show, but a chilly, chilly night!
Good luck with vacance.1 this week’s question!
I hope everyone has enjoyed their incredibly sunny summer
& I can’t wait to see you all this week!

IMG_3983.1I had a visitor my last day in the classroom! It fluttered around the classroom for awhile before settling down on the tent. I thought he might be one of the Kindergarten’s or Miss Sam’s butterflies they raised & then let go, but when I traded pictures with Miss Tsakalos it turns out to be slightly different. Was a beautiful temporary guest! CLICK the picture to see pictures up close!
