Spending a week in Tofino, trying to chill and forget about work etc. Staying at the Pacific Sands Resort which is nicely priced and situated between 2 much higher priced hotels – the Long Beach Resort and the Wickaninnish Inn. For those of you that might not know, Tofino is located on the west coast of Vancouver Island, about 2.5 hours from Nanaimo. It is situated right on the coast, and our beach (Chesterman Beach) faces open ocean, clear to Japan. It really is a fantastic area, highly recommended. This is the 3rd time we have been here and I’m sure it’s not the last. It’s a great area for surfing, apparently, as the waves can get pretty high at certain times of the year. Right now, the rating is “moderate” for the Wave Warning posted on the way into town. Incidentally, since the last time we were here several Tsunami Area and Tsunami Evacuation Area signs have been put up. We’re in one of those zones, let’s hope we stay status quo ;).

Hope to post pics to Flickr at some point and keep blogging. Wifi is sparse, though, as of right now the only place I can get a signal is out here on the ocean facing deck – darn ;).
