Where we are staying borders the Pacific rim national park. We basically did that today. My cold has all but gone, and the sun was out. Breakfast at the hotel was great, just cereal and toast which is really all you want and or need. Yes, its nice to have more, but you don't need it. Anyway, went to ucluelet, then back to the wickaninish interpretative centre and then to several other sites within the park. All very pretty, pictures to follow.
Canada, particularly BC, is a great place to live if you like activities. Where I am staying there is surf, a beautiful beach and its a temperate rainforest (not sure what activities you do in a rainforest), but then you look over the trees and there's snow capped mountains beyond! So there's alpinism, surfing, rock climbing, mountain biking, everyone runs all the time and all manner of other incidental activity such as horse riding. And, everyone here is dead healthy, the pubs shut at 10, everyone eats at 6 and the night clubs start at 7!
So. Tomorrow we,re thinking of exploring more of the island and then heading back to the city for a night before possibly having a look at Seattle. Back to squamish on Friday to climb. Matt birch arrived at chez Clifford today too, and it will be nice to see him/get inspired!
