Ahh, summer, the best time of year; the days are long, the weather is warm, and taking time away from work is sublime. This year Chuck and I took holidays to go on a road adventure and visit the west coast.
We had a wonderful 12 days trekking our way through Banff, Vancouver and the Sunshine Coast. In our journey, we saw the turquoise water of Moraine Lake; looked way up at the giant totems of the Haida and majestic red cedars of Stanley Park; enjoyed the calm and ease of English Bay; watched in silence as the “J Pod” Orcas swam and shot mist through the air; and last, but certainly not least, laughed-with and embraced family on the Sunshine Coast.
What a fun trip! Here are a few of my favourite shots.
The iceland poppies of Lake Louise
The fresh produce of Granville Island
The eerily calm waters around the San Juan islands
Wordlessly watching the whales
amazing!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Anna! I’m trying to keep up with your cool-blogness.
So interesting for me to see these images, since I from these parts of the world. Particularly love the colors in shots 1, 2, 4, + 5. The top shot–Lake Louise poppies–reminds me jelly beans ~
Thanks Karyn! It was such a wonderful trip. I love driving from the prairies to the west coast; the land changes so drastically. Funny, now that you mention it, the poppy picture does look like the colour of jelly beans.
