Vancouver Island - Day 1 ~ Back to Bayview

I was struck with how close our hotel was to this tiny airstrip! I did not expect this; incredibly cool and unusual it was. Not to mention, little brown rabbits here there and everywhere. Where was I? It was like I landed on another planet. So far, this week long vacation was off to a pretty good start. Wow, could hardly wait to start exploring the whole island tomorrow. Basically this was our first real experience on Vancouver Island; several years earlier we did spend and afternoon in Nanaimo with a quick ferry ride in and out, but did not get a chance to properly explore the island. Now is our chance! Thanks for stopping by.

Airstrip can be interesting to watch to see what lands there, but I love the harbor there, so quiet and in the green

That chopper looks OK, but that red plane I would do a hard pass on flying in it! Great shots as always!
