Hanging out here at Cox beach, Tofino, Vancouver Island. Looks like Surf’s up! Let’s check it out. Personally I have never tried surfing — yet. Never say never. It does look like a lot of fun, but first

Random Friday
It's January 16th, another random Friday is here. I just took down the Christmas tree! Usually I put up the tree first week of December and take down about mid January or so. How about you? I know some

Bottom’s Up
Bottoms up, not in the sense of drinking, but it looks like we have an abandoned surf board (and a couple of washed up squid). Could it be that it got damaged, and someone didn't bother to dispose of it

Cox Beach
After a brief visit to Tonquin beach, it was off to the next beach! Not exactly sure where we were going, we soon stumbled upon Cox beach. (Looking back on a map, there were at least 10 different beaches

Tonquin Beach
Tonquin beach is one of many top notch beaches on Vancouver Island’s west coast. This was the first of many we had the opportunity to visit. We headed to the shoreline to frolick around (and to take pictures

Tofino Paradise
This is paradise! At least to me it felt like paradise. Tonquin beach here was only twenty minutes walking distance from “downtown” Tofino. What a great day it was to be out and about on Canada’s most

Random Friday
Here we are on the second Friday of the year, time doesn’t stand still! January is typically the coldest month of the year for us Canadians, and so far it’s been cold (surprise surprise). Someday I’m gonna

Tofino or not To Fino
Tofino or not to fino, that is the question. Part of our Summer vacation found us on Vancouver Island; now even though it is an island, it is not small by any stretch. Tofino is on the west side of the

This and That
Whilst out and about around Victoria’s harbour area I took a few random photos of this and that. The parliament building sits in front of the harbour area; here you have horse carriage rides available

Scenes from the Harbour
Shortly after leaving the parliament grounds, and just across the street is the local harbour. Watching over the harbour is the Fairmont Empress hotel (which looks to be under construction). That would

Perhaps it was more interesting to be outside the parliament vs inside the parliament! Walking around the grounds, here are a couple things I found. A fountain I captured in 1/2000th of second, stop motions

Victoria’s Parliament
Last Summer we had the pleasure of visiting one of Canada’s top destinations, which is Vancouver Island. Each day of our vacation took us to a different part of the island. Initially I didn’t really want

First Friday of the year! Are you still on break or back to work? Did you get away to any tropical destination or maybe you are still there? Myself, well we are hanging out in the cold Canadian tundra,
