long beach and tofino
09 aug
we leave the congestion of
victoria and head north on hw 1. we pass through ladysmith, nanaimo, port
alberni and finally get to long beach. hw 4 to tofino is a great
ride...narrow, twisty, bumpy and fast....
long beach is great.
the beach goes on as far as sunlight and a fog bank allow us to see. l
will be back.
we leave the beach and
drive into town. of course there is no room anywhere...big surprise. we
end up at a bed and breakfast...except there is no breakfast. after
unpacking we head back into town for grits. and beers. hippies everywhere.
we get up the next morning and find fog in all directions. we decide to
head inland and warmer weather and visibility. we head into town, tank up,
and get a quick breakfast. everyone is looking at me. the waitresses smile
and hover....who do they think l can possibly be?????????????
