Having
woken up and watched the sunrise from Mt.Prevost it was time to get in the car
and head down the mountain in search of breakfast
before very long we left the gravel road and passed beneath the gaze of our recent resting place
We broke our fast at the White Spot restaurant in Duncan, BC
from the parking lot we could see where we'd slept (on the left side of the right peak)
After breakfast we pulled over to explore the Somenos Lake interpretive park.
It's an interesting board-walked area of natural flora and fauna. In this case Karsten is checking out some Nootka Rose blooms
We found some Canadian Geese actually in a marshy environment
and many birds flitting about eating insects
from in the marsh one feels like they could be in the middle of nowhere
then you leave and pass signs that I find amusing.
Other places would say "clean up your garbage" or "don't litter". But here there is this hyper-polite co-dependent/read around the words/implied language sign.
and next to it, this sign.
On the road and off we headed
Then we found a road we'd not driven down and made our way to a boat launch park on Somenos Lake. A pretty place for a morning pause and look around.
the trestle for the little train at the BC Forestry Museum. I remember riding around that track over the water in the train when I was a little kid. It was as awesome as you'd imagine.
Next we make our way towards Nanaimo!
see ya soon!

Beauty shots as always :) That's quite the crack in that windshield eh!?
Thank you! :D
And yeah that crack has long been a staple of Ruby's general condition. I learned how to shoot for best effect through that window a number of adventures ago :D
