Today we are on a roundabout journey down the backside of Vancouver Island. This morning we took the bus from downtown Vancouver to Horseshoe Bay and a ferry to Nanaimo (pix to follow, my device is very twen-cen). We spent a few hours there, and I ate my very first Nanaimo bar in its native habitat.
Now we are on the VIA Rail Mahalat en route to Victoria, where we will catch a bus back to Vancouver (via Swartz Bay and the ferry to Tsawassen). We could throw a plane in there for true multimodal goodness, but this way we're maintaining a pretty low carbon footprint for this trip. The best part is that we get to sleep in our own bed tonight.
It was fun the trip. I felt like being in Sedona. It looked like a ghost town - there was very few people around the town. It was fun though :-)
ReplyDeleteHey, that sounds great! You should go to this place I heard about on the radio, called Namaimo!
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah, you did. :-)
