Vancouver Island


Sorry for the blogging absence but... I've been away. My parents took me out to Vancouver Island for the long weekend. It was a great trip we had amazing weather and our campsite was beautiful. We stayed at "Mussle Beach Wilderness Campground" just down a long dirt road from Ucluelet. It is a big bay tucked in behind the broken islands. Our site was right on the ocean. I had my tent facing it so I could just look straight out and just see ocean. Did I say I love the ocean. I just never get tired of it the tide is always changing and it seems like the more you look the more you see as far as starfish and little crabs.

It was a little rustic. There was no electricity, the water they had was colleted off their roof. They had supposedly hot showers but... I'm not so sure. It was an experience, one afternoon I headed to the shower and it was so refreshing I had the sun shining on me and the shower curtian blowing in the wind.

We spent some time in Tofino and had some really good seafood! We ate really well at our campsite too as my Mom was along and brought lots of goodies.
