It was a pretty cool place

 There in the forest.  But we didn’t stay.  We moved on to our camp at Oceanside RV Park in Saanichton, just north of Victoria, BC. 2017 trip map    We got a very nice spot.  We’re out of the shade and back to the beach.  We’ll stay here a while.

Nanaimo

 We took the Nanaimo Ferry from Horseshoe Bay, West Vancouver, to Vancouver Island. 2017 summer trip map   There was plenty of room for the bus, but we had to drive it close to several walls.   It was a good ride. Now we’re at the Living Forest Oceanside RV Park.    It’s a pretty cool place.

Life on the road

 You just never know. This RV Park, which looked to be terrible to begin with, has turned out to be a great experience.  The sites are still narrow; I’ve never had to sit on the neighbor’s picnic table to hook up our sewer hose before, and the surrounding neighborhood is a little seedy.  But the office is helpful, and the neighbors are wonderful.  We’re having a great time here. We’re in West Vancouver, and of course, the surrounding scenery is spectacular.

Okay

 This place is as nice as it needs to be. We moved to a waterfront site.   The surrounding scenery looks like this.  High tide comes up within 20 feet of the coach.  Low tide.  There is a heron rookery to the right.  Bald eagles flying about.  Seals swim in the bay in the evening, right up to the shore, herding fish up against the bank. Evening light.
