Love Sooke and French Beach. Enjoy a meal at Shirley Delicious!

I still dream about this delight too! #RedAle #Sooke #BritishColumbia

If you tell me to "get lost", I'll likely take it as good advice. (Port Renfrew is one of my favorite get lost places, located on Vancouver Island in beautiful British Columbia, CANADA.) #photography #landscapes #mountains #portrenfrew #vancouverisland #britishcolumbia #canada #wilderness

🇨🇦 Among the many highlights of my first full day on #VancouverIsland, #BritishColumbia was this #BlackBear crossing the road in front of me near #PortRenfrew. For a moment, I was tempted to get out of my car and hand feed it, but then thought better of it 😉

You build a tourist destination, accessible via 1 road and you don't even run a bus to it? There are no parallel roads, paths, or rail? You're building and reinforcing car dependency. I don't think I'm going in the direction of Port Renfrew again any time soon.

Spent the day yesterday touring family on a hike from Botany Bay to Botanical Beach. It is almost officially "Faugust" season. The drop from 28c down to 13c in the coastal fog zone was a nice break from the heat. #PortRenfrew #VancouverIsland #JuanDeFucaProvincialPark

The back of the car is very dusty

Along view of the beach shows light brown coloured rock with lots of different shapes under a blue sky to the left

two large holes filled with Clearwater in the beach

A screenshot from the Hyundai app shows 12% on the battery and 51 km remaining

Phew. A big day driving a lot of different kinds of road!

The Kona is a little dusty but no worse for wear. 492km total with a 20min fast charge (60-80%) in Port Renfrew was enough to make the loop.

Surprise visited family in Victoria too. A good day! […]
