So, we left Courtney on Tuesday to visit the West side of the island. We travelled through a rain forest area where we took a stroll through some of the biggest trees around this area. Some are as much as 1000 years old and simply overwhelmingly huge. We then visited the town of Port Alberni which is somewhat industrial and not that nice of a place as far as tourism. After that, we had about 2 hours driving through some very rugged and beautiful country.. lots of mountains and lakes and some great roads.
We got to the west coast and immediately felt a much cooler temperature and everywhere was foggy and misty. We set up our tent in the Pacific Rim National Park and then proceeded off to Tofino. This is a very touristy place and after a bit of walking around the sky cleared and the sun came out. We then proceeded to find a very nice bar where we sat outside in the sun and looked over the ocean inlet enjoying the boats and float planes and as you can tell by Julie's pic here, we also enjoyed some sushi and something called vodka and tonic!!!
Life is Good n'est ce pas.
