Today was a long, often painful ride, to Tofino...I say this because first of all there was a lot of traffic....car traffic, camper traffic, truck traffic.....the kind that needs to move over and let the faster vehicles, like motor bikes, move through. What many cagers (what we bikers call people in cars) don't understand is that we can't roll up our windows and turn on the AC...we can't coast along at intermittent speed (slow to slower) because we have to keep shifting gears. MOVE over and let us pass thru. It is the only way we have the keep from over heating.
Despite the long painful ride we picked up our keys and headed over to our rental place. We were not even a little disappointed with our rental place. Wow, wow and wow again. Everything we thought it would be is that and more. We did a quick shower and then off to Sobo for supper.
Sobo is owned by a cousin of a guy we work with...not even 7 degrees of separation.....we had a fabulous meal dessert, wine and conversation. On our walk home we stopped by the co-op and picked up some breakfast groceries. Now we are just sitting on the deck, overlooking the harbour waiting for the next meteor shower and enjoying the sunset.
Today is a day that I easily recognize how blessed I am....to have such great friends, wonderful family, amazing husband and all the opportunities we have to witness the greatness of this planet in our travels. We need more people to see what we see..because traffic aside, this is one freakin beautiful planet...and I get to see it, and share it with my partner in life and adventure. Happy Anniversary Baby...here's to many more!
