Day 29 - Sailing

We were ready at 7 AM. Fred took us to Victoria Harbor, where his sailboat was docked. It was nice, over 30 feet long - much more comfortable than the nutshell we remembered from our Club Med vacation in Martinique. There is plenty of room to sit, and it has a cabin that sleeps three people.

And off we sailed out onto the open waters. I enjoyed the little cruise. Heinz probably too, but his stomach, not so much. He got very seasick. Too bad that we had to end this excellent water adventure prematurely.

Late that afternoon, we left for Port Renfrew to explore more of Vancouver Island. For miles and miles, there were no houses on this route but hills, forests, and lagoons. It was just pure raw nature!

We set up camp by a small lake a few miles before Port Renfrew, in the most beautiful setting, but there was no drinking water. I went fishing and had to take an involuntary dip in the freezing water to salvage my lure that got stuck on a rock.Lue lisää
