Tofino -- May 21, 2006

It's been definitely a hectic past 5 or so months. So I needed a break. Peter, my folks, my friend's grandma, and I went up to Tofino for the day. And that was my first time going up to Tofino! Woot!

  The morning started with a 4 or so hour drive up to Tofino. I think we started driving at about 9:30 or 10... Peter got his Lego porn.  
  And I got my homework to do.  
  My mom and dad!  
     
  Filling up for gas.  
  Hmm... No where near Tofino yet.  
     
  "HEY COW!!"  
  Pretty sweet Jetta towing a pretty retro trailer.  
     
     
  Pot Road! Woo!  
  Er... I mean... Jingle Pot Road.  
  Cool random looking shack thinger.  
  Helicopter'd!  
  Grass on the roof of that place. Woot woot.  
  That's right. "No hitchhiking pickup is illegal"  
  Hmmm... Not close yet.  
     
  Filling up again?!  
     
  Well, at least it's cheaper than in Victoria.  
  Hahahaha, this guy's dog starting making a break for it, and the guy seriously dove to take down the dog. It was amazing!  
     
  Oh shoot! Busted....  
  Holy crap! It's a LOTUS!!! *droools*  
     
     
     
  Where IS Tofino?! Gosh!  
  Hey, that's something you don't see in Victoria: "Maximum 110 km/h". I think we need some of those over here.  
     
     
  Point A to point B.  
  Hehehe busted by the cops.  
  There's Tofino!  
  Cool lake with a cool trestle. It's in one of the next couple pics.  
     
     
     
     
  There's the trestle!  
  For some reason, I really like this shot.  
  142!! Almost there.. Hahaha riiiight.  
     
  Port Alberni.  
     
     
     
     
  Hehehe only on the island.  
     
     
     
 
 

 

 
 

 

 
I like mountains. Makes me wanna climb up to the top of one of those suckers.  
 
   
 
   
 
   
 
   
 
   
 
   
     
     
     
     
     
     
 
   
 
Yep.. We're definitely SO spoiled on the island.  
 
   
     
     
     
 
   
 
   
     
     
     
  Made a pitstop somewhere. Sooo just started taking random pics.  
 
   
     
  Almost there!!!  
  And here we are... Tofino. It was about 2pm by the time we got there.  
     
     
  Dream catcher for big dreams?  
  Woo!!  
  That's where we went for fish and chips.  
     
  Afterwards, Peter and I found a playground!  
  There were two slides... One for Peter, and one for me!  
     
  Good thing we left right after. I think the cops were onto us.  
 
   
 
Now we're off to Long Beach.  
  We went to some look out points and whatnot first. That was pretty cool.  
  Bumminghird!! I mean.. Hummingbird!  
     
  Holy crap! A sasquatch!!  
  Wow.. EVERYTHING'S green!  
  That's Long Beach down there!  
 
   
  So we're now we're at the parking lot for this trail to get down to Long Beach (well, part of the beach). Once we stopped, Peter ran away... Few minutes later, I had to use the washroom, and look who I found!!!  
 
No teepees!  
     
 
There were some pretty big trees!  
 
And Peter just HAD to climb them.  
  Oops, I fell down some stairs and busted my ankle again!  
     
 
   
 
"Stop taking pictures of me!!!"  
     
  Beautiful beach...  
     
 
   
     
 
Peter and I ran away from my folks and climbed rocks. So this is where I took this picture.
 
 
   
  They finally caught up!  
  Random nice, pretty flower.  
  And this is what you can find in those little pools of water.  
  "I can see myself!"  
 
   
     
     
     
  I decided to strip right in the middle of the beach.  
  mm Bow chica bow wow...  
     
  "Hey... How'd my pants end up here??" Hahahah!  
  Now we're off to a different part of the beach.  
  Gonna watch people surf in the other part.  
     
 
   
     
     
  On the way home... Saw a cop car telling people to watch out cause there was an accident up ahead.  
  It was there, but it turned out blurry... Nothing else interesting happened on the way home. The end.
