Seal Bay Nature Park plus Comox

Seal Bay Nature Park is just down the road from where we are camping so we head there to check it out as it has been many, many years since we've been there.

The trail is super dense - Sheila is in this picture!

Lots of eagles looking for food and seals way out on the rocks exposed at low tide.

We find a swinging rope along the beach and we both give it a try.

Chris really gets the swing going. 

Next, we head into Comox to check out the town we considered moving to all those years ago when we returned from our 5-year sailing trip on Tioga. At that point the boys and us decided we had been gone from family for far too long and we returned to Alberta. 

We take a walk out on goose spit.

We head to the main downtown marina and walk the docks as we always enjoy looking at boats. There is a Ukrainian cultural celebration called "Vyshyvanka" going on so we admire the beautiful costumes and watch the young girls dance in traditional fashion. Apparently much like the Metis culture, the Ukrainian dresses are embroidered in distinctive patterns unique to each specific region of the Ukraine. It's really quite beautiful.

Back to the trailer for a night of relaxing.
