first impressions...

Tofino

incredible the things living underneath the ocean's surface


it's getting foggy at Long Beach


no whales in sight from Wickinannish Center...

could it be true and I am dancing with wolves...?

do you belive in bad omen?

maybe you should start believing...

yap, it IS a
BEAR!

Stamp River Falls, near Port Alberni

could you imagine a fish trying to make its way up this stream...?

it's salmon - on their way back to where they came from

nice place to choose for recreation


the dot you see is a salmon jumping... (brave guy!)

short stop at...

...French Beach

ssshhht, noone knows about our secret campsite...

...with oceanview

Botanical Beach (Juan de Fuca Provincial Park)

Whalerider

waiting for the tide......to carry me away

Victoria - southernmost edge of Vancouver Island

refusing whale watching tours...

...and scanning the horizon instead
