Around and about Parksville

                                  On Qualicum Beach. Just hot dogs.

                           View of main land mountains from Parksville Beach

      Hiking in Cathederal Grove Provincial Park. The Douglas Fir trees are up to 800 years old.

                                          Harbourfront in Port Alberni, which is about 45km inland from Parksville on a very long inlet off the Pacific Ocean.

The view inland from Parksville beach.

                                 Country Market in Village of Coombs

    "Goats on the Roof" is a neat collection of shops, all of which grow grass on the roof where the goats live. When we went on the weekend, there were hundreds of people, so we went back on Thursday to a much smaller crowd.
