Off to Vancouver Island and Gulf Coast Islands


























I am taking a little summer vacation to visit friends in Victoria, British Columbia.  Victoria is on Vancouver Island.  I can hardly wait!  It is a foodie's dream because my friends and their cousin, Meredith & husband are also into good food and good wine!  Meredith will be making a picnic for us!  I can hardly wait!  We are going to picnic on French beach - a slightly rugged ocean beach overlooking the Strait of Juan de Fuca with wonderful walking and hiking.

I am also looking forward to some cider and eau de vie from Merridale Cider.  It can only be purchased on the island.

I am not taking my laptop with me so you will have to wait until I return for all the reports on the wonderful food we encountered.  We have a heavy schedule of visiting the Saltspring Island Farmer's Market, beaches on Hornby and Denman Islands and also staying in Courtney, which is up island a bit.  It will be a full 5 days and I will have lots of great food pictures to share when I return.
