Canada

We spend four days every June at Yellow Point Lodge on Vancouver Island. Been doing this since the year 2000. Except this year because we were dashing north to the Broughtons.

Another favorite – Flower Power is strong on Hornby Island

We revisit an old favorite as we continue our re-entry into the Real World.

We revisit a favorite place as our journey home begins.

We visit Viner Sound on our penultimate day in the Broughtons. We’ve seen bears here on a previous visit. Spoiler alert: no bears.

We love Turnbull Cove. It has everything: scenery, landslides, hiking, old mining stuff, swimming, and frogs.

A short study in contrasts.

We revisit this floating marina for July 4th and Prime Rib Friday.

We hop aboard the Zephyr to explore a couple of interesting coves.

Woke up this mornin’ and what did I see? A whole Bay of kalaidoscopes starein’ back at me.
(to the tune of any 1-4-5 Blues song)

We cruise out of Drury Inlet and drop the hook in nearby Claydon Bay.

We enjoyed visiting Alert Bay, Sointula, and Telegraph Cove but we came to the Broughtons for the empty places. That begins today.

We visit a cultural treasure and I vow not to get worked up about Residential Schools.

Two interesting settlements on two small islands.

Not like yours or mine.
