    Loved seeing the bear fishing. I’m curious about Aunt Julia’s story, how did she end up living in Canada, living in such a fantastic place. Maybe you should do a video with Julia.😊

    Hello Ambassadors
    Such a great video. I used to play right at the RXR tracks when I was at the age of 11-12 years. It brought the memories back. I would spent hours there. Thanks for bringing those days back.
    Aunt Julia is such a lovely lady. The lake view, rolling hills also reminded me England. I enjoyed my 6 months there ☀️🌈🌈I hope you get the parts for our friend Trudy really soon and be back on the road.
    Just one sincere comment: Thank you for bringing these lovely sites and wild nature even under the circumstances. For that I appreciate both of you. Keep up the good videos and have fun💗💗💗🇹🇷🇹🇷

    A toast to you and Trudy with the Latvian vodka I brought back to Texas! Yesterday I had a glass of lemonade with the first ice I had seen in five weeks. Latvia doesn't use ice. Beer is drunk at room temperature(cold) and vodka is drunk in 50 ml shot glasses, never in cocktails or mixed drinks.

    We used to live near a paper mill in the province of Quebec and often had to go through that town. The general consensus when in the car travelling through that town was that you held your farts until the smell of the town hit the inside of the vehicle! Still makes me laugh remembering it!

    Years ago l visited Vancouver Island and found a village called Chermainus .( thats probably misspelt ). The townsfolk didnt want to leave when their paper mill closed so they found a way to keep tourists coming to keep the town alive. They decorated large outdoor walls with murals and they’re worth seeing. Vancouver lsland is very like the area where l live in South Australa . You are bringing back lots of lovely memories for me, so thankyou and happy travelling. 🌈🐨

    If you have some time left on Vancouver island for more exploring….I recommend a few spots on the lower west side … an hour and a half outside Victoria is botanical Beach, Avitar grove (very large trees), Sombrio beach (hidden waterfall), sangrigham lighthouse & Shirley delicious cafe. Enjoy your Vancouver Island adventures! From a local who doesn’t live far from these beautiful spots! 🌲🌊

    I visited the island years ago, 1991?, and recall a village where the front gardens were full of flowers. Some had amusing wooden cut outs painted to look like a woman bending over in a big skirt as if she was gardening! Quite realistic! Another town was full of totem poles!

    I adore Vancouver Island. My brother lived in Sooke for a decade or so, and I visited from the UK - it was my favourite trip ever. I saw a bear and cub at Sooke Potholes campground and a grey whale in Oak Bay on my first day. Wow 🥰 I can't think of a better place to live. It's been so lovely seeing you visit places I stayed on my tour of the island ❤️

    Great footage. Sorta of a sad update but Trudy will be back up and running soon. I may be a little biased as a born and Raised BC girl, but if I was going to get stuck anywhere for 3+ weeks, Vancouver Island ain't too shabby. Glad you have family around (makes it easier being stuck), & that the weather has been still pretty warm and dry for us this time of year.
