Mini Post-Exams Road Trip

---

Last week Hailey Troock and I took off in the little toyota and headed West. After meeting up with some of her Big White Aussies, we started our mini adventure to Victoria and Tofino, on Vancouver Island. It was a very much needed trip after the second semester of our fourth year of uni. Lindsay is still in Kelowna, but getting ready to head up to the Yukon and then off to Mexico for another semester abroad. It will be a season of travelling for us both, and hopefully our paths will cross a few more times before our planes take off.

Hailey and the boys have continued on toward Kelowna so that the car is back before Hailey's dad comes home tomorrow morning from Alberta! I am staying in Victoria for the summer, living with Hannah and enjoying the ocean air.

Our trip to Tofino was just fantastic. Awesome food, excellent weather, great company, heaps of animals and naturaleza, good times, lots of music and one box parade.

I'll let the photos speak for themselves, I'm not sure if anyone even checks travelblog anymore, since there is a widespread of facebook addiction going on. In any case, enjoy the photos from this past week, and get ready for more to come.

peace, love and road side attractions,

jenica

Hi girlies
I´m still in Buenos Aires. After a year of sleeping on a shitty bed I got a new one today. A bit of a scary leap into permenancy. Looking at your pictures from your road trip make me miss home!! I´m from Fidelgo Island, just south of Vancouver Island in the States, and your pictures remind me of how wonderful it is to live there.
