Vancouver Part Three

Anna and I walked onto the ferry at Tsawwassen. It was a lot quicker than by vehicle, as we arrived 20 minutes before departure and hopped on and then we were off (when we caught it in Victoria last time we missed the sailing and had to wait in the rental car for a couple of hours). The trip to Duke Point (Nanaimo) was 2 hours. It was a bit tricky navigating around with a stroller, baby and a couple of bags, but eventually I found a seat. Anna enjoyed watching the water hit the ferry. Jesse and Sarah picked us up and then we drove to Courtenay, picking Koah (who is 16 days older than Anna) up on the way.
It was a pretty relaxing first couple of days. We went out for breakfast, walked around town, and went for a nice walk just outside of town. Unfortunately we were all at different stages of sickness during the visit, but we still decided to make a trip up to Tofino for an overnight stay. The drive went great, we only had to make one pit stop. It was windy the first day, but we had sun both days, so it was awesome to hang out on the beach. We stayed at the Pacific Sands hotel and got a rocking rock right next to the beach on Cox Bay. Before we left we spent the afternoon at Long Beach. The ocean air was refreshing. The drive home was a bit more stressful, but we made it in one piece (my motion sickness was getting the best of me, and Anna was melting down). And that's the trip in a nutshell. Can't wait to see everyone again! Thanks for having us.
