We woke early this morning to a beautiful sunny sky, something we have not seen for quite a while. We left camp and went downtown for a cup of coffee, a pastry roll at the local bakery, and some very interesting conversations with some local residences.

We then proceeded to walk through town visiting the many building murals. It is quite an impressive sight with the many beautiful murals depicting early life in the area.

Following lunch the four of us drove to Cowchin Bay where we toured the wooden boat building museum and also visited numerous small shops with various goodies...
The afternoon was concluded with a short stop at a tasty ice cream parlor and a dinner of halibut and chips in Old Town concluded a wonderful day of touring the area and visiting with my cousins.

A local waterfall provided some great ideas for our use at home. |
Tomorrow we will be heading north going towards Port Hardy where we will board the ferry to go to Bella Coola on the main land.
Good Night,
Roger and Shirley
