We brought our camping gear and decided to give it a try with our still-not-a-year-old daughter. Our nervousness proved to be ungrounded; Saphi really enjoyed the tent and most definitely, playing in the ocean at the beach at
Porpoise Bay!
On the second night, we had a great dinner of inspired cuisine at a cool joint called Marcia's on Gower Point Road in Gibson's. There was some sweet live jazzy blues going on, featuring singer/musician Rolf Kempf. Our daughter loves music, and we even danced a bit, with her on my shoulders. Would highly recommend this bistro... Marcia, the owner, is such a class-act sweetheart! Also, for more casual, but yummy and filling plates, try out the Old Boot Eatery
in Sechelt. They serve hearty Italian and fusion food.
We spent two lovely days camping at Sechelt and then headed north to Egmont, where we hiked in to see the awesome power of the changing tides, at
Skookumchuck Narrows.
Regina didn't feel like camping another night, so we ended up stopping at Rock Water Resort at Secret Cove, that I first heard about from our über-photographer friend, Erin Gilmore.
They took great care of us at the resort! We had a nice room with a view and spent some time at the pool surrounded by Arbutus trees the next day before heading home. Definitely check out this resort for its beautiful view and ambiance. They have rooms and a good restaurant in the lodge and also private cabins and unique tent homes dramatically perched on the bluffs.
