Nanaimo to Telegraph Cove - Vancouver Island, 2009

Album 9 - It was now week 4 of our trip. We took the 1.5 hour ferryride from Horseshoe Bay in Vancouver to Nanaimo on Vancouver Island and picked up our rental car. We had visited the southern end of Vancouver Island in previous holidays so this holiday we concentrated on the northern two-thirds of the island. From Nanaimo, we travelled northwest via Little Qualicum Falls to the Pacific Rim on the west coast and stopped at Ucluelet and Tefino. We then headed north to Telegraph Cove and Port McNeill. Highlights were the beautiful forests, rivers and beach walks in the central west as well as whale and seal spotting around the tiny islands in the north east.
