The beach and festival stage in the background.
The smog may obscure my view of the mountains, turning most of them into distant shadows, but it sure does make for a pretty sunset. I am sitting on the balcony of a 2 million dollar home in White Rock, BC at a small get-together of my cousin’s friend from camp.


Spent the day on the beach in White Rock. Not the best, lots of rocks and seaweed, but it’s still the Pacific Ocean and it was my first dip of the trip. The Festival of the Sea was going on so it was nice listening to some folk music while swimming or relaxing in the sun.


The town reminds me a little of the O.C. - beach, pier, rich houses, close to a big city but just far enough; or I have possibly been watching too much television. The pier lights up at night and around 9 o clock there were fireworks for this festival which we watched from the balcony of her friends house. It was a spectacular view.


Fireworks seem to be popular here.
