Thursday

A brief rain shower early this morning then sunny breaks until just afternoon when skies cleared giving us lots of sun and, no surprise to anyone who has visited this area, lots of wind.

We had a relaxed morning, walked the beach and then went into Tofino and spent some time savouring the art of Roy Vickers in the gallery before dropping Michael off at the surfing place.

Rod and I went back to the Wild Pacific Trail for a short walk on the northern part of the trail where Rod had not been before. Took a few photos but the wind was so strong it was difficult to hold the camera steady on the overlook areas so that part of the walk was aborted.

We came back to the house and Chesterman beach around 4pm hoping to find and get some photos of Michael and his surfing colleagues on our beach. We found the tide extremely low exposing a very wide beach but no surfers! They had gone somewhere else, so there are no photos of Michael skimming over the waves.  :-)

Then, good food and drinks and our second sunset; a great way to close our last day here.
