Sometimes a destination or place is worth exploring more than once, especially with today's ever evolving society and landscape. With this in mind, I once more ventured out to Steveston, a place first mentioned here. My desire to return was fueled by the sunny weather, thoughts of cute homeware stores and the fact that one of my current favourite TV shows, Once Upon a Time, is being filmed there at the moment. It was definitely worth the second look and I feel like a third or forth wouldn't be out of the question either. You can't go to the seaside on a sunny day and not partake in some fish and chips. This time around we tried Dave's Fish and Chips and it was delicious. The homeware store were as cute as ever, yet I couldn't justify a purchase due to the current state of my bedroom with it's lack of storage and display space. Therefore, I reluctantly passed this time around, but I look forward to future purchase opportunities.
I must say at one point we were even enamoured by the lids on our hot beverages from Waves Coffee House because the mechanism for opening and closing the pouring spout seemed ingenious. Cake goes well with a hot beverage so you know you are onto a good thing when there is a delightful cupcake store, Bell's Bake Shop, present. If only we hadn't stumbled upon it after the fish and chips, but as they say there is always next time.
One of the highlights of this little Saturday adventure was that some of the storefronts were emblazoned with the names of what they become for the filming of Once Upon a Time. Honestly I was like a kid in a candy store and very snap happy so imagine what I would have been like if there had been actual filming on Saturday.
The disappearing sun and the resulting drop in temperature seemed to bring the outing to a close, but there are definitely a few more Steveston visits to come.
