A chance at Chesterman.
22 August 2014 | Chesterman B&B, Tofino
Maggie
We should've known better and booked ahead of time but we didn't!
The hotels were full, but we were lucky...
Able to book two separate hotels in Ucluelet for Saturday and Sunday...
and then, quite by chance, a vacancy appeared on the books at the Chesterman Beach Bed and Breakfast and we took it.
We had the garden cottage only 80 feet from the beach, beautifully decorated with leaves from the gardens on our towels, home made soap in our tub, and walls covered in photographs taken by the owner who used to work as a photographer in San Francisco until he arrived here for a day ten years ago and never left.
We felt spoiled rotten...
In fact, we knew were!
Tofino was tucked up in a chilly blanket of fog when we unloaded the car, and we could hear the ocean that surfers come all over the country and world to surf in, but this picture shows all we could see...
and so we poured a glass of wine and sat close to the bonfire on the beach, enjoying the company of the people sharing this comfy spot with us.
Couldn't wait to wake up and see what else was out there!
