VANCOUVER ISLAND: day 24/25

day 24

Drove into Campbell River to find a laundromat and did two weeks worth of washing which took up the majority of the day. Why are these things still done by coins? Booked a camp site for Tofino whilst we waited. 

Drove to another campsite to fill up our water tank then headed back to Upper Campbell Lake to see if any of the insane pullout spots were free, and they were!!!! Bagged the best one which had a lil private beach, lush. 

Made a thai green curry for dinner, it was yummmmeh. The sunset was insane, a sky full of pinks and purples. We chilled by the fire, drank vino and toasted marshys (this daily marshmallow habit is becoming uncontrollable, but I’m not mad about it) then went to bed, v tired.

Despited not much happening over the last few days, for some reason it has been exhausting? Decided if the weather was good tomorrow, we would stay here for another night. I can’t wait to have a days rest from this taxing holiday.

day 25

Hallelujah and praise the lord, the sun has blessed us with its presence. A WHOLE DAY of CHILL. We had a breakfast of kings and queens (avo and eggs on a bagel), ate it on our luxurious private beach. Got the rug out, Isaac set up the hammock, I painted my toenails, did some more of the macrame net (which probably wont be finished until we’ve sold the van), read for a bit, sunbathed, stared into the horizon etc etc. Isaac, obviously, filled the time being productive and fixing things in the van. Blew up the explorer, went for a float, then for a v quick (freezing) dip. 

Made fake chicken tacos for dinner, drank more wine and tucked up into bed. Feeling zen and rejuvenated. Decided to head to Cumberland tomorrow to do some mad biking.
