Sigh – As a novice snapper I often feel awed by the amount I need to learn. Still, the more i read, the better off i am. Thanks for moving me on a bit more

Nice pictures. I'm a bit envious. We really liked Vancouver Island, and we'll be going back there eventually. However, there are a lot of other places we like, too. Of course, we'll have to take care of a couple little details before we can go to Canada -- passports! ;( Mike Goad’s last blog post..Traveling in Tennessee, Virginia and Wednesday Weigh In

@ Urban Panther Thank you so much for your impressive tour of Vancouver Island. I loved reading it and looking at the photos. It looks like a relaxing way to spend a weekend. And judging from the comments, everyone else loved it, too.

@ David Although I love LA, I enjoy being able to take readers to all different kinds of locations via guest blogs. In fact, stay tuned because next week, Travelin’ Local will be going to New York………..:)

@Paisley - pansy shells? I take it you are referring to the sand dollar! I have never heard it called a pansy shell, but it's nice. I grew up collecting them on the Atlantic Coast, but they aren't as big as these Pacific coast ones. I introduced the Lion to sand dollar hunting, and I had to laughingly stop him from hauling home truckloads of them. Kevin - exactly 5 minutes of rain in 7 days. We had the same luck last year when we visited the Island. And good point about keeping it fairly secret! Mums the word. Urban Panther’s last blog post..Is this a mid-life crisis?

My favourite area of Vancouver Island. It's great that you had a successful trip, looks like you had decent weather for the beach walks and of course excellent food. Don't spread the word too much about this place though, it might get crowded! Kevin’s last blog post..Macro Photography - What equipment do you require?

Lovely words, lovely pics. I really like the one of the beach through the trees - unusual combination of foresty and beachy - nice. I was surprised to see the pansy shell - we also have it here in South Africa - so pretty and fragile (the shell). Paisley (Paisley Thoughts)’s last blog post..'Woman in a Kitchen' continued
