"Be a tourist in your own town!" Last Sunday.

The last day of the "Be a tourist in your own town" was our start. It didn't go smooth, no not yet.

I arrived there at 11 am, not to many people yet but enough to start selling. But! Do you remember the trailer boys, the once who made my trailer with useless front-support wheel that always snapped off. Well I didn't trust it to take it all the way around the Wax museum building. I did check it out, hesitant but tempting to go out there and start my baking history.

I decided not to do it. Wait. I called Paul a good friend with some healthy technical knowledge.

He showed up after 45 minutes but did not see a solution right away. The trailer connected to the car and I left, not home but cruising around to find what I thought at that time to be impossible to find. A "trailer dolly", last night I saw one on line in Vancouver but didn't order it. So I drove to Sidney( 30 mins) where they have boat shops end trailers but no dollies. Tried a couple other places, all closed on Sunday. Almost back in town I noticed a parking lot full with different kind of trailers, "U-Haul", they must have dollies. I was in there for about 15 minutes without finding what I was looking for and back outside the owner saw the light!!! "I do have one, in a box", yes.

I bolted it together, paid and left to the Inner Harbour, the sun was still out and so were the people. What was I happy with my new trailer dolly, so easy, you only need some horsepower to pull it, one man power it was. It was 3 pm in the mean time, people walked up to my trailer to check it out. I still had to set it all up, heat it up and there were people asking to have one.

Paul and Tracy were my first official customers. People kept coming and there I was, a tourist baking waffles in my own town.

A little over 80 waffles in 3 hours time!!! Moments of stress by seeing more then 3 people in line, dropping things and smiling. Yes I was excited, they love the product there is no doubt about it. That was very good as a start.

Monday: rain and snow, I stayed at home.

Tuesday and wednesday cold but some sales and Friday was an other good day.

This weekend is cold and wet. We stayed at home.
