While planning for our trip to Tofino, I looked at Air BnB properties in the area, and I stumbled across this beautiful property. We booked the minimum five night stay, and I don't regret our decision one bit!
The house is right on the water, so we were treated to beautiful sunsets each night.
And there was a rocky beach right outside our door to enjoy.
Taste test conducted. Conclusion: disgusting
There were kayaks that we took for an outing. I've never been much of an ocean sport kind of gal (probably because I can't swim that well), but Lacey had a blast!
And Lacey could photobomb Auntie and Uncle's family photo! Her life jacket really works with their shirt colour palette.
There was time for cousin bonding. Zoe loved watching Lacey run around, and Scarlett toddling back and forth.
We did a short hike to see the Old Englishman Waterfalls.
We spent a couple afternoons exploring Rathtrevor beach. The tide was out both times, so it was more of a giant mud flat full of tiny wiggling crabs. Lacey didn't enjoy walking through the crabs, so she spent a lot of time on our shoulders.
Scarlett in particular loved the house décor. Hairy pillows are her jam.
There was a family of otters that we saw playing in the bay, as well as an abundance of varying ships. Tankers, cruise ships, small vessels.
Lacey practiced her skills with our camera, and took this photo of Uncle Andy and cousin Zoe. It's a pretty good photo. But... Just remember. This was one of 85 photos, and 25 of the photos were of her foot.
I can only imagine how the chaos will grow as our family gets bigger, older and more mobile. We had to blockade two sets of stairs with chairs so Scarlett wouldn't climb down them. Even with the barricade, she spent an immense amount of time climbing up and down the stairs (supervised).
If this holiday was any indication, future holidays are going to be even more fun! Cheers to 2020 holidays-- whatever they may be!
