Stanley park again, but this time we toured by car
Today we start touring with our rented big Ford Edge. Peter fetched it from Vancouver airport while I was blogging in the hotel and checking out.
When he returned I finished my blog post about our 2nd day in Vancouver.
Wow what a car, it floats and loves gasolina.
We had time for lunch so we toured Stanley park once more, this time by car and decided to go to the Teahouse, which we had visited the day before with Joanna and Allen.
After lunch we took the ferry to Nanaimo on Vancouver island, a trip that lasted a little less than 2 hrs.
We drove to our first B&B address in Courtenay; 'the Torries' where we occupied a lovely big room, with a super bed and bathroom AND most important kind and very helpfull owners. Lovely place I recommend!
We had sushi and sashimi for dinner and bought a good bottle of white wine at the local shopping centre. The liquor store has lots of great wines (even Peter his fav Aalto wine), Balvenie whiskey and Taylors port. We were impressed.
Afterwards we drove to the harbour of Comox nearby and admired the sunset and took loads of pictures.
After talking to Colleen and Lyle, our hosts and the other guests at the B&B we called it a day. I was too tired to blog. By now my jet lag more or less has disappeared. Phew about time.
