Engaging Tofino

We went out to Vancouver Island last week to visit relatives and I told my lady to pack a few extra things as we were going to fly out a few days early.We landed in Comox and headed right over to the west coast of the island to a gorgeous resort spot called Tofino,staying in a beachfront location at the Pacific Sands Resort.I asked her to marry me at the lookout for Sunset Point...overlooking the ocean....and.....she said yes!(see An Engagement in Tofino gallery)

I thoroughly enjoyed this gallery Rick. You certainly captured the essence of the west coast. Well done! "V"
