Neighbourhood was charming throwback to the rural past of Vancouver. After a frantic day in the "city" of shopping and traffic, Southlands is a gem. Quiet, safe bridal paths to walk, and horses in every yard. The barn was very clean, stalls mucked out, horses beautifully groomed and chickens running about with their feathery little feet, coop clean and well maintained...how else do you know who your hosts are except by how they care for their animals. And we were very impressed. It was lovely to sit in the early evening sunshine and watch riding lessons. Farm fresh eggs for breakfast, fair trade coffee with Avalon milk. Telf and family clearly have values that match my own. The posting is accurate, I love that there were no surprises. thanks so much.
