Back from Tofino, finally dry after an abundance of water. Between the constantly falling from the sky while we were walking on the beach and the more hot, seething in the Jacuzzi where we have marinated for hours, it was clearly the dominant element of the weekend. Even my hair usually hopelessly stiff ended up having a semblance of form almost complete.
The rain did not stop us to go for long walks on the beach. Chesterman Beach First, near the house we rented, and also Long Beach.
was gray all the time without any hope of thinning, but it was beautiful nonetheless. The wind, waves, large beach, fresh air, and this sensation around the world, or at least side of Canada that I felt, just like when I went there in May. When I'm in Tofino, my head is the map of Canada, and I deeply feel that my feet are at one end of the country. And I like it ...
And it's true that this is far, Tofino. To save time, we left Thursday evening after work and spent the night in the excellent youth hostel Painted Turtle, which has a common room to turn green with envy a lot of people. We saw live well ... And as at it, we begin at once to celebrate the start of the weekend.
The journey continues the next morning. You have to cross Vancouver Island, by a road which becomes rather twisty. I managed to capture the only ray of sunshine of the trip ...
... we did flee immediately singing at the head of Joe Cocker and Michael W. Smith, to name a few.
We spent hours on the Internet to find a house that was hosting us, and it finally Alder View we had chosen. The website does not do it justice, it is more beautiful in person than in photographs. I recommend it to those who want to leave in groups, it is spacious and comfortable, not to mention barbecue, Jacuzzi and sauna, for a very reasonable price.
Just installed, Carole, Alex and I decided to make a first visit to Chesterman Beach, despite falling from the sky. I must wipe my camera several times on the beach, the drops continue to crash on my goal ...
Between walks on the Beach, parts of which are linked Rummikub, good food and good wine, not to mention a few vodka, good humor, laughter and yoga classes in the jacuzzi, it was frankly hard to beat as weekend friends, except that we thought that that should have come with us and was stuck at home with a nasty virus.
And now, again a really hard time sharing ... Too friendly, it's possible? Perhaps, after all.
And now, this song will remain associated with the memory of Tofino in the rain. This kind of perfect moment as we could have in a movie. It's called "Tofino" instead of "Paris".
Well, that's not all that, but my photo of the month was posted in my absence, I must now go for a ride to see all beautiful contributions from participants. I feel I'll see beautiful skies!
