    Hikes Through Rainforests to Beaches

    July 2 in Canada ⋅ ☁️ 61 °F

    We drove along the lush Southern coast of Vancouver Island, with views of the Olympic Mountains in Washington state across the strait. Charlie had selected several places to stop and hike through the rainforests to the beaches. Pics are below. Temperatures were 55 - 60. One beach was windy and chilly, but the others were more sunny.

    Our hotel is next to a river and has a private dock for hotel guests. Lovely setting. Great day!    Read more
