Monday 29th June Beachcomber/Moorecroft/Enos Lake and Parksville waterfront

Weather looking good! You never can tell though. Started off the day at Beachcomber but only baby at home.

This family stopped the traffic although one car did try to overtake us and mow them down! 😡

Next stop Moorecroft. Unfortunately a school party was there. Lovely for those kids who were having a whale of a time but not so good for anyone wanting peace and quiet and hoping to see wildlife!

And then I saw something off in the distance

Couldn’t make out if it was an Eagle or part of the tree from where I was until

Now off to Enos Lake for the first time this trip. Got horribly lost there last holiday so not going too far.

However the next 4 shot across the path nearly giving me a heart attack each time!

Drove around Nanoose Bay on the way back. Part of it is very Stepford Wives but some of those houses are incredible and the views breathtaking.

Loved this deer with his little antlers crossing the road. At least this time everyone stopped for him.

Our final stop was Parksville prom. Walked there a lot when we were staying in our previous flat but this is the first time this holiday. Plenty of people on the beach as the weather is sunny. Shame about the strong breeze though. What is it about the weather this year – we’ve never had so much wind before. And I mean this part of the Island hasn’t, not us in particular!

These white crowned sparrows do love to sing – and in such a gorgeous tree

Last stop at the hotel we used to go to for drinks overlooking the beach. Shame they’d enclosed the terrace in a plastic tent but with the weather the way it’s been and having to have less tables I can see why.

Delicious seafood chowder – shame about the shell but at least it shows it’s fresh!

Now back at the condo sitting on the balcony listening to an Eagle shouting.
