Well, Its February and I can hear Victoria calling me.......more accurately its the wifes birthday next week and we need a road trip.
Vancouver Island is always a good choice especially when the dollar is way low.
So its off to the Dorchester Hotel in Nanaimo and a visit to the Dingy Dock. A floating pub / restaurant located just off Protection Island in the Nanaimo Harbour. A short water taxi trip there and back. Quite spectacular actually.
Then south to a B&B in Cowichan Bay one of the coolest little waterfront spots on the West Coast and then on to Victoria and our favorite Hotel the Magnolia.... An excellent drive if you know the back roads and I do!!
Hopefully will only have to wash the beast once while on the road.
A good compromise, the wife gets to have room service and a few days away and I get to drive the Beast!
Only 3 sleeps to go!!!
Later..
