Our last day as travelers! We packed up and drove downtown to shop for groceries before driving to Sooke, our final destination. It's about a 40 minute drive. Our first stop was our beautiful house, still under construction.
This will eventually be our new address.
The house was designed by Vancouver architects Battersby Howatt and built by a local company Anderson Cove construction.
This little beach is just below the house and the view is across the Juan De Fuca straights to the often cloud-shrouded Olyimpic mountains in Washington.
This is the cottage we're renting until the house is finished.
Well, that's the whole trip. Overall, it was awesome although there was a tad more rain than expected. The most memorable moments include our first night on Carlyle lake in Killarney, nice car camping in Pukaskwa, the surprise of Rose Valley lodge in Thunder Bay, hiking Edith Cavel glacier and meadows near Jasper, the path of six glaciers hike in Lake Louise, soggy wine touring in the Okanagan and reaching the coast at White Rock.
We're planning to continue posting photos and thoughts as we start our new life here on beautiful Vancouver Island.
