游记:Tofino, Vancouver Island, BC (三)

这些都是一路上我们看到的野生动物:这是我们乘的船(Covered boat),里面可以坐12个人:海上风景蛮不错的,但船一直在晃,拍照头有点晕:
Cobcob在温泉旁吃苹果,等爸爸、妈妈轮流泡温泉:
Cobcob在等上船回Tofino:
从码头到温泉,边走边拍照须一个小时,来回两个小时:
泡温泉,其实Cobcob只泡一分钟而已:
第一次到温泉的傻瓜在没预备之下被烫,被某人拍下来了:
在 Tofino 的第二天,大清早我们在 Chesterman Beach 玩,之后我们参加一日游的 Tour 到 Hot Spring Cove。我们是乘早上十点的船,坐了两个小时的船到40km以外的小岛去。一路上我们看到老鹰、黑熊、Sea Otter、鲸鱼等。很可惜我们没见到大鲸鱼,那天我们是往北走,但鲸鱼群是在南部。我们的船长蛮好的,尽量帮我们找鲸鱼,后来还好给我们看到一只小鲸鱼。

我以前听过的温泉都是在山里的,我们这次去的温泉是在海边,一个洞接一个洞的水池,一直沿到海里去。最后一个洞是与海交界,只可以坐一个人,海水是可以打进来的。我只泡在那里几分钟,一边有太平洋冰冰的海水打进来,另一边有热热的温泉流下来,好玩!

游记:Tofino, Vancouver Island, BC (二)

从我们住的 Guest House 走到 Chesterman Beach只需两分钟的时间。早上五、六点钟Cobcob就把我们吵醒,反正也睡不着了,我们干脆就起来看日出。Chesterman Beach是朝西,虽然不能正面看到日出,但日头是后面出来又是另一番景色。在沙滩上雾中漫步、吹海风、看风景真爽,心里也一直在赞美神创造的伟大。

游记:Tofino, Vancouver Island, BC (一)

Cathedral Grove 800岁老树下:Pacific Rim National Park Reserve的Rainforest里:我们没在这家咖啡店喝咖啡。我们在隔一条街找到较便宜的咖啡店:这是咖啡店前的Tofino牌子:
Tofino是处于海啸地带:

这次的旅程最喜欢的地方,非 Tofino 莫属。Tofino小镇,是Vancouver Island上一个著名的旅游胜地。地处偏僻,位于岛的西岸,面对太平洋。

我们在 Victoria 住了一个晚上,隔天一早简单早餐(大统华面包+泡面)后,我们便往Tofino方向出发,开始我们6个小时的旅程。途中我们有经过著名的 Goldstream Provincial Park (10-12月份可以看到Salmon鱼回归产卵奇景),不过我们没停下来,我们直开到 Cathedral Grove 。在那里我们看到了我一直想看的800年老树,开始了我们探讨古老森林的乐趣。

之后我们在Port Alberni停一下买麦当劳汉堡包,再开一个多小时弯弯曲曲的山路才到达 Pacific Rim National Park。到公园时正下着雨,所以我们先到 Wickaninnish Interative Centre 走一趟,也看了20分钟的Sea Otter记录片。之后我们到了Rainforest Trail 远足,当时正在下着大雨,但走在几百年的大树下,我们身上竟然没淋到雨水。这场大雨把Rainforest变成名副其实rain forest,森林里披上一层层的雾气,树干上及其周围都长着绿绿的青苔,走在林中享受“雨中没雨”的感觉实在太舒服了。

我们大约5点钟左右check-in我们在Tofino的Guest House。稍微休息一下、吃晚餐之后,我们出去逛逛Tofino小镇。小镇只有两、三条街,当时下着雨也没什么地方好去,所以我们找了一家咖啡店喝杯咖啡去了。之后才回Guest House休息。

游记:Victoria, BC

在往Victoria去的渡轮上:Butchart Gardens:
Beach Drive 的其中一个海弯:
可以喂海豹的码头:
Inner Harbour:
到了温哥华的第二天,我们去Victoria玩。周三早上刘阿姨带我们到Alleluia港式茶餐厅吃早餐。我点了沙爹牛肉米线汤加一杯热奶茶,Doreen点了一盘港式炒面再加一杯热奶茶。非常简单又好吃的早餐!渥太华绝对找不到这种早餐。

早餐后,我们坐上了10点钟的渡轮到Victoria去。一路上海上风景还满不错的。Cobcob还有他的船上儿童游乐场。我们差不多12点到了 Swartz Bay Ferry Terminal 之后,先到世界闻名的Butchart Gardens看花。花园还不错,可是因今年天气比较冷的缘故,很多花还没开齐,没旅游广告拍的好看。我们也带了大统华面包在花园里picnic。

到了Victoria,我们先到Traveller’s Inn Check-In。之后我们才与我们以前渥太华教会的一位弟兄(江德栋)见面。Victoria的中餐馆不多,我们的朋友带我们到Wing Chinese Restaurant吃炒螃蟹。非常难忘的一顿饭!

饭后,我们到了Mount Douglas Park看Victoria的全景。这地方是Tourist Guide没介绍的,但却是本地人常到的地方。本地人通常是爬山上去的,但我们赶时间,就开着我们租的Buick Allure直接开到山顶。山上风景非常好,可以看到当地360度的全景,值得一去!

之后,我们沿着Beach Drive一路看风景。夕阳的阳光真好,摄影的光线很柔和,但太阳公公一下子就下山了。(还好,我们有带三角架拍夜景。)在Beach Drive 上有一个停船的Marina,那里可以喂野海豹吃鱼。但我们到的时候,卖鱼的店已经打佯了,我们只好站在码头上看海豹。还好给我们看到一只,但海豹看我们没鱼,一下子就游走了。

以上的Mount Douglas Park 和喂海豹的地方通常游客都不会知道,我们幸好有我们的朋友充当我们的导游带我们到这两个地方去。回来后再聊起Victoria之行,我们都一致认为这两地方是我们最喜欢的地方。

之后我们才到Inner Harbour拍拍照,然后回到旅店去。当晚,我们十点多就睡了,因为隔天还要赶路去Tofino。隔天一早我们朋友还送一袋苹果来给我们,实在太感人了。真是令人难忘的旅程!

有了孩子之后,我们只有两个选择:“孩子跟我们走” OR “我们跟孩子走”。我们的选择是“孩子跟我们走”。所以我们以前很enjoy的活动到现在我们还是照样enjoy。

我们这次到温哥华旅行带了很多东西。相信一般人都不会带的东西我们都带上了。

我们所带的东西有:
  • Laptop
  • Camera set (Nikon D50, 2个镜头, External flash)
  • Tripod
  • Camcorder
  • Binocular
  • GPS Navagation system
  • Cobcob 的 Car seat
  • Cobcob 的 Stroller
