After a couple of nights in Vancouver I took the 90 minute ferry journey over to the family holiday pad on Salt Spring Island.

Coming in to Long Harbour

Salt Spring has a population of around 11,000 which doubles in the summer. It has the gulf High School to where kids come from the other smaller islands.

We had a very wet first day but it was very atmospheric and much needed. The hope was it would douse some of the forest fires too.
The next day was lovely and I headed out for a walk to Nose Point:
 |
| A lot of boats out here |
 |
| Water to cool the feet |
In the evening my cousin Nigel took me out for a paddle in the canoe.

| View from Mount Erskine to Vancouver Island |
 |
| Parked up! |
 |
| Shetland connections abound |
