Another beautiful day of walking on a beautiful beach…. This time, the other side of Long Beach. There was more people than on Wickaninnish, which mean that there was 30 people on the whole 5km beach, so, still not St Tropez. The White Owl was, again, very happy.

Wickaninnish
The weather was abnormally beautiful, but we weren’t about to complain. The drought was starting to have its effects in British Columbia, but for us, the sky was blue, the temperature was around 20 Celsius, and we just enjoyed it enormously.

Our last morning in the train was a nice mix between mountains and farms. At some point, we were stopped a long time, and they told us the train hit a poor Bambi and they would take it to the vet. Also, a lot of this… And I have so many questions about that! We […]
