Way out west

Feeling pretty relaxed as I write this having spent the last few days on Vancouver Island on the beaches of Tofino and in the vibrant town of Victoria. I only scratched the surface of this island, but enjoyed a whale watching trip and caught a glimpse of a grey whale, sea otters, a bald eagle, seals and dolphins, as well as sampling kahlua ice cream and avocado sushi (not together) in Victoria and a pretty sunset in Tofino. These memories, along with camping amongst the giant Douglas firs and campfires with toasted marshmallows on the beach made this short stop worth every minute and of course more friendships were made with some great people.
