Well, it’s officially Fall here in Victoria, it’s sunny today, but we’ve had major winds the last 24 hours, ferries were cancelled, power was lost by some, and trees/branches everywhere. I’ve haven’t stepped foot outside yet today, but it looks chilly, somewhere around 10c so yeah, chilly. I’m just not ready! And because of that, I hang on to the memories of my trip in early October, I took a road trip to warm, sunny California. I went down with my mom to visit family in the Sacramento area. Sacramento is more desert like, it gets quite cool there in…
I have to confess, I’ve been waffling all over the place trying to decide on where to write about next. I think I’ve chosen Maine, because it’s September, and there is probably no more beautiful season on the Eastern Seaboard then Autumn. The pictures while capturing it, still doesn’t give you the feeling that it has. I admittedly loved Maine/New Hampshire. If they didn’t have winter, I’d be happy to live there. Summer is of course a perfect time to travel to Maine, through personally I’d choose September & October for the beauty of Autumn; and then there’s the magic…
So now it’s time to cover the West Coast of Vancouver Island, as I mentioned in my Victoria post. Vancouver Island is a two hour ferry ride or 30 minute flight from the Lower Mainland (Vancouver). There are several airports to which you can fly if you’re aren’t driving. Please be aware that this is not a small little Island that you can zip around, in one day, from mile zero in Victoria to Port Hardy it’s 500km / 310 miles. And if you want to reach the very north end, I think there’s a forestry service road, for another…
It’s time I finally get to my home town, Victoria, BC. This is a favourite destination for millions of tourists and Canadians every year. And there’s nowhere else in Canada I’d live! It’s not only beautiful, but offers so much to do and experience. They don’t call it beautiful British Columbia for nothing. Oddly enough I’m not biased, I know, you don’t believe me, but I have lots of other places in the world that I love to travel to. However, I haven’t met anyone that doesn’t love it here. I’m going to cover Victoria and surrounding area (maximum a…
So you got there, the sun is warm, the beach is amazing…but seriously how much time can you spend doing that with friends and family in tow. Or if you’re like me, as a solo traveller. I’m all for getting a tan, but the older I get the shorter my patience for sun worship. To keep your group moving, here are things you can DO while in Hawaii, no matter what Island you’re on, so unless it’s specific to that Island (and I’ll mention that), it can be assumed that whether you’re on the Big Island, Maui, Oahu or Kauai…
And now for the Big Island. As the youngest (and still growing) island in the chain, the island of Hawaii has the most ecological diversity of all the Islands. Peak season is December and spring break. Having spent a week on the Big Island, I can see why people like it, however, the weather was brutal on most of the Island during my week. 2/3rds of the Island had severe flash flooding, the only dry spot was Kona. It impacted my plans to see everything, and it turns out, the city girl, needed more city that the Big Island offered….
