Tofino

Pulled into a rest area on the way to Tofino and the first thing we saw was a little mouse.

I have seen plenty of mice but never in a setting like that. Then there were some blue jays which were really pretty but hard to photograph, three ended up there but not together they were in a tree each.

Going through the mountains, did have a little rain but not much, plenty of motor homes on the road. A road sign had me confused for a little while and I cant remember the exact wording but basically it was saying that if you were a slow vehicle and had five behind, you needed to pullout, and pullout (pullover) areas were provided. At home it is just hoped that they would pull over/off, maybe we need something more formal.

Close to Tofino, we stopped to visit the beach oh boy it was rather steep to get there.

This was the pathway and in the car park were warnings about wolves and bear had been seen in the area the week before! What? The signs did advise to  make noise so we talked loudly. There were some Vicki seats on the way but I only needed/used one of those on the way back. There was a board walk for the last hundred metres or so. It was quite cool toobecause of the foliage.

Once in Tofino, we went to a couple of art galleries, one was Native art, very nice stuff, but got to remember that I am trying to downsize at home.
