Last Day at Tofino - (by Yvonne) Today we learned how to spell and say "Ucluelet". It seems all these years we've been leaving out one of the l's (U-clue-let). Another pretty little village - a lot of townhouses and houses are being built and the town is expanding. We went to see the lighthouse - a pretty area with lots of rocks. (Al was walking on the beach and what was to become our 'Talking Stick' found him).On the way back to McKenzie Beach, we stopped and had a drink at the "Wickaninnish Inn". What a resort - beautiful, right on the ocean. I was there about 34 years ago and it's sure built up. The native art in the place is wonderful!
Welcome to the Chelsea Overseas Kamping Excursion
We set sail on an early morning ferry (7:45) departing Tsawwassen for Duke Point for a 2+ week excursion to Vancouver Island. On Day one we traveled up island - our destination: Port McNeill for 3 days. Four couples from Surrey decided it was time to explore our neighboring island in our RVs while we still had our health and wits about us. The four couples are: Bruce & Gerry, Dave & Yvonne, Ted & Elaine and Al & Kathy. The original group has shrunk down from about 17 due to other commitments and the very unfortunate passing of one of our dear friends, Linda. We will miss her greatly.
