Vancouver Island - Day 1
Here on the first day, checking out the neighborhood near our hotel, and officially the tide is out! Being more or less a landlubber, getting to the ocean is quite a novelty for us rednecks. What a wonderful feeling to be near this immense body of water. I could really get used to this, and picture myself retiring here someday perhaps…but back to reality. The weather was spectacular so far, I think I’ll walk around for a little while longer, then head back to the hotel. Thanks for stopping by.

That three wooden poles... It would be interesting if they had any real purpose or just put there for the sake of it
If I had to give a title to these pictures would be calmness, I would take a chair and sit there relaxing
Maybe those poles are there to tie boats to?

Hm it doesn't seems like low tide from the picture, unless it's tricking me 🤔 if that's low tide and then it rises could be
I am really not sure what the three poles are all about, probably something to do with tieing boats as becca-Mac says, but being the landlubber I am, not 100% sure.
Very nice and beautiful pictures, the environment looks good and attractive.Did the hotel located near the river?
It was located by the ocean, thanks.
Ok dear, thanks as well 👍.

Like a "Dalí" painting discovered, imagined, recreated by your talented lens, my friend!... Awesome!...
Thank you, what is a "Dali"?
😀 I'm referring to like a work by the painter Salvador Dalí... My father was a painter and art critic, so when he saw a work of art and associated it with the style of a famous painter (or other type of artist), he would often say, "It's like a Dalí," or "It's very Picasso-esque," or "It has something of Matisse about it," and so on, depending on his opinion... I also have that kind of perception, and the level of surrealism in your amazing shot seemed very close to what Dalí expressed in some of his works... Greetings and a big hug to you, my dear and talented @daveks friend!
Ok, thanks for the explanation!
There really is nothing quite like living on the water. I did when I lived in Puerto Rico, it was great to have the waves gently lap away all night long. It would be a great place to retire I have to agree!
Beautiful pictures there at low tide. I'm glad you got to enjoy the ocean on that visit to the island, it really is a beautiful place to be!
Lived in Puerto Rico? Was something to do with military service? Thanks as always.
No, just my vagabond years and took advantage of getting some education in while I was at it. It's part of the US school system as a territory of the the US! Military came after 9/11!
Nice photos,
Thanks.
