Telegraph Cove

We hadn't originally planned our trip to end up in Telegraph Cove, but BC throws you rain, and you change your plans. 

Once getting off the ferry from nanaimo, we found a place to set camp from the help of some locals, made a cozy wee fire and cooked dinner.

oh by locals, I meant the employees at the liquor store :).

Quaint indeed. 

So the reason we made our trip north was because we were flipping through some brochures in the car and there was a page that pointed out kayaking with the orcas was rated #2 on lonelyplanet (Canada). They come as pods to feed on our salmon. 

Excited, we called with our inquiries, but they told us it was a 50/50 chance we'd get to see them considering we only had the time for a day trip. 

Sure enough we did not end up seeing them. 

However, we did see porpoises (similar to dolphins I'd say), a black bear, eagles, and a seal family.

Look how beautiful that water is!

It really is Beautiful British Columbia
