Canada 🇨🇦 July 2022
After a quick shop and a lunch break in Aberni we headed toward Tofino.
Our first stop along the way was Sproat Lake where we discovered some ancient Native American Petroglyphs. Our next stop was a beautiful riverside 💦 lookout called Wally Creek, complete with a gorge and falls.
Along the way we spotted our first Black Bear 🐻 on the side of the road standing on his hind feet and watching the traffic whizz by.
We arrived into Tofino late afternoon, in time for a walk on the beach and dinner by the campfire 🔥.
