Denman Island/ Hornby Island

The Cabin...2 rooms, kitchen/living room/dining room (one open space), loft area..sleeps 4 comfortably on the floor...

This was friday night...beautiful sunset from the front yard...

Denman Island is where the cabin is...it is also where Goldie Hawn is!!!!!!!!!!! apparently...her Cottage/Cabin was 2 houses down...i didn't see her...but I left her a little note saying that I love her daughter and she's kinda cool i guess...LOL

We basically just chilled out..watched the beautiful sunset and saw the meteor shower!! I saw 20 shooting stars!!! amazing! i had never seen anything like it! sooo cool! I made the same wish 20 times...i hope it comes true :)

Saturday we headed to Hornby Island. It is a place that is stuck in the 70s. seriously. tie die shirts/hippy dresses/ artists making their own crap and selling it under umbrellas/ no pop, just natural stuff, men with long beards/ woman with no bras..LOL...a very hippy-ish feel on this island. Fun to visit...but i could never stay there for more than a day.

We went to the beach..swam in the ocean and headed back to Denman for dinner. A very relaxing weekend (but diiiirty cuz there's no running water in the cabin!)....Sunday morning we got up early and took the ferry back to Vancouver Island.

Overall, a wonderful trip on Vancouver Island from Tofino to Nanaimo...across the island...we saw beautiful sights and had great adventures...and still...i have not seen nearly a third of the Island's beauty....I must come back...next time ...with *you*

This was the beach on Hornby Island...perfect weather...i was in the sun for 2 hrs and didn't feel hot at all...didn't even get sun burnt...ofcouse...because i wore sunscreen :)
I forgot to mention...i went on a skiidooo...or seadoo...i dunno what its called..but it was FAST! holy smokes! I was hanging on for dear life...it felt like every turn we could flip over..or if i fell off i'd die cuz i'd bounce off the water so hard! ridiculous...soo much fun!!

Sunset #2. saturday august 14th, 2010

Wild Play!

So Thursday night I was back in Victoria...Jen-less...after a great time roadtripping around Vancouver Island....

I was finally able to take a shower and sleep in a bed for a night.

Friday morning we headed out..back north...to the Cabin I was telling you guys about. But first....

WILD PLAY!!

This is me zip linning...from one tree to the next...its like an obstacle course..60 ft in the air...

That me there stepping on wood planks....you are harnessed in..so there is no danger in falling to your death..its just challenging to keep your balance.....

lets just say...that was friday...it is not monday..and i'm still sore!!!

Beautiful British Columbia 2

Our campsite in Tofino!!! LOL...on the front lawn of the park office. thats all we could find...50 bucks later...our other option was set up in an RV park..lol...brutal..and the weather was shitty..and the next day we woke up to rain! and to make it worse...we had left our shoes outside of the tent!!! LOL...we packed up and got the hell outta Tofino...unfortunately...not the best time we had...but we could tell it had potential! lol

A view of downtown Victoria from the north shore (5 min from my aunts house). Imagine living in that house on the right? the view...whoa...over a mil for that place for sure...

Tofino..took us a while to find this restaurant...but it was worth it. delicious..and the view was priceless. The sun did peed through a little..but you could see the clouds were still very low...and it just got worse after this...

This is Coombs...on our way to Tofino. It is known for goats on the roof. you tube it. sooo bizzare. The grass has grown on the roofs and the goats live there...don't ask me any more questions..thats all i know..hahaha

This was just by our campsite on Newcastle island. the tide was low...so you see all that sand behind us. When we returned that night...the tide was high and it was all full of water...craazzy

Beautiful British Columbia

On our way to Tofino...this was on the side of the road...we couldn't help but stop and enjoy!

This is the sand sculpture competition in Parksville...freaking amazing! This was my favorite...there is a tear coming down her right cheek..the detail was incredible...

This was our campsite on the native untouched island of Newcastle..just off of Nanaimo..the clearing you see is the ocean...amazing..

the land to the left is Nanaimo...the land to the right is Newcastle Island...the ferry was tiny..the size of 2 cars maybe...took less than 10 min to get across...
