Vancouver Island

My family just got back from a fun summer vacation on Vancouver Island, Canada! I can't wait to tell you about all the pictures.

A great big whale jumped out of the parking lot while we were waiting for the ferry.

wow - a great view of birds and stuff from inside the ferry.

Dad and I are ready - let's go captain.

I crawled all over Dad on the ferry ride.

Grandpa, me, Mom.

Grandma, me, Dad, Grandpa

I got a new toy at the "Goat Market" store.

The beach = MUD!
