THE MANY FACES OF VANCOUVER ISLAND

by LoriPori - last update: Oct 24, 2004

EXPLORING VANCOUVER ISLAND

Malahat Summit View Point
Hans and I arrived Monday June 2, by Ferry to VANCOUVER ISLAND. Places we visited were Victoria, then North on Highway 1 to Cowichan Bay, Duncan and Chemainus, then west on Highway 4 to Port Alberni and Tofino. We then backtracked Highway 4 to Parksville and Nanaimo where we took the Ferry back to the Mainland. Although we only explored the southern half of Vancouver Island, what we saw and experienced was just fantastic.

 Lovely page on this scenic island. The City of Totems sounds really worth visiting as does the Cathedral Grove. I hope the bears keep to their own paths, as do those in the Tatras here and you don't often meet them.

 This City of Totems looks so familiar...the twins would love this! My son gets more scared though..Nice tip on bears...I don't think I can act "dead" though! I'll try to ROAR him away..

 I enjoyed visiting Vancouver Island through your page, Lori. We didn't get as far as you, but it was impressive and your page has helped to bring it back.

 I liked tips about the MacMillan Park- Cathedral Grove. Forest giants more than 800 years old impress a lot! Now I know what to do if I meet a bear somewhere, ha-ha... Thanks Lori for the virtual tour!
