Back to Reality

The drive home was very, very long. After leaving Tofino we headed upisland to Fanny Bay to see if we could buy some oysters.

 

Oyster shells from over the years...

 

Success! We came home with 13 qts of stewing oysters....lookout Gregg...Yasu! Your favourite!

 

Reality.....

 

 

 

Sleepover time!

 

 

 

These were taken with my iPad ...

 

 

 

They told me that they don't know how to cook...

 

 

Korekke...I think...I want to call them Karoke! Lol...

 

Now they can't say they don't cook...it was so delicious! Thank you :-)

 

More of Tofino 2016

This beach was so cool to photograph. I really learned lots and even my out of focus shots are kinda cool. 

 

 

 

Hello Japan!

 

 

 

 

Waiting for fish and chips....yummm! This was at our resort.

 

 

 

Sleeping? ...or Not sleeping? It's my story and I say she's sleeping!

 

 

Christmas ... we brought our own tree and put it up. So cool...

 

 

There's a theme here...there better not be any more complaining of the cold!

 

 

Our new tradition ...Raclette on Christmas Day

 

 

Merry Christmas! We spent the next day sitting next to the fire and watching the waves crash onto the shore. There was rain, wind & hail. So thankful for  the view from our room :-)

Tofino 2016

Since I have been on this learning curve with my camera it has been taking a lot longer to post process my pictures. But it does make a difference. I also have had to learn how to use a new app which allows me to blog from my iPad.  Cuts into my doing nothing time ;-)

After spending 4 nights in Nanaimo which included a great visit with Brent's folks in Courtenay we headed to Tofino on the West coast. Shopping is limited there so we were prepared to bring food stuff with us. Hang with us I tell you and you will never go hungry! 

On the drive we stopped for a few photo ops...look Mr. Frog!

 

It was a beautiful day

 

We stayed at a resort called Pacific Sands. It is stunning! Right on the beach. We were definitely spoiled.

View from our deck

 

 

 

 

 

Went for a walk on the beach as I wanted to catch the sunset.

 

 

 

 

 

Dinner first night. Butterflied prawns, bacon wrapped scallops, marinated chicken, brusselsprouts and rice.

Broiled in the oven and of course we set off the smoke detector! 

 

There are those that wear wetsuits at Christmas ...

 

...and then those that don't!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ten!!

Still wearing the tag from the store! Lol...
