BC Trip Report – Day 4, Smuggler’s Cove, Secret Cove, Rockwater, Francis Peninsula and Bakers Beach
There was another sunrise reflection to the north that morning.
This was my view from bed.
D and I in our orange shirts as it was national indigenous reconciliation day. We packed our shirts before we left Winnipeg so that we could remember and reflect on the struggles of our indigenous citizens.
We briefly stopped at the other house. In every new room in which I step, I select what would be my favourite chair and view. This was the one from the second house.
Since it was a holiday, D didn’t have to work and accompanied Nance and I for the day.
Our first stop was a picturesque hike to Smugglers Cove.
The history of Smugglers Cove is a fascinating tale.
The many coves and vistas, look a bit the same when you are trying to caption photos.
In this neighbourhood the homes were built up high for a view of the ocean.
That afternoon we toured through Secret Cove, Rockwater and the Francis Peninsula. At Bakers Beach we found Nancy’s house across the cove. At least we thought we did.
We shopped for supplies at Madeira Park. Back at Nancy’s there was a whale sighting in the vicinity. But unfortunately, it was not visible to us.
We sat down to another delicious supper with D at the barbeque (and then were drawn into watching the Vice President debate).
Kath’s quote: “You can’t buy happiness” Okay, explain travel then…
Love never fails.
