Tofino Getaway

Lucas and I just got back from a great 2 night trip to Tofino on Vancouver Island! It was a great little trip; our first vacation (minus camping) since our honeymoon. We loved being right next to sandy Tonquin beach and we both just love being by the ocean! We were able to enjoy a  bit of sunshine, a very fancy dinner, and some rain which just gave us an excuse to relax :)

The "Beach Nest" Cabin right by the beach!... 
The beach in front of the cabin was beautiful!!
Starting a camp fire on the beach!
 
We hiked Schooner Cove, which has a boardwalk trail to Long Beach

 We went and explored the sea life at low tide
 Our fancy dinner at the Wickinninish Inn... they had a bottle of wine for $2200 on their 32 page wine list... we passed on that one!

And Lucas gave his first try at skim boarding in the cold weather... we'll wait for some warmer weather to do more of this!
We look forward to going back one day, maybe in the summer! It's a great place - we highly recommend it!





Quarry Rock

So Lucas and I went hiking with the youth recently in Deep Cove; we got some great views and some good pics!

Graduation

I graduated last weekend with a BA in Sport & Leisure Management. Even though I had already finished up in December, it was nice to go through the ceremony and see friends from school again. Enjoy some pictures!
