Nanaimo - Lowtide View of the BC Ferries Terminal

I often walk down to the Departure Bay beach, returning home via the Beach Estates Park trail. On occasion, I've forgotten to check the tide table; net result, I'm turned back, short of my beach strolling goal. This time the tide cooperated. A lowtide postcard of the BC Ferries terminal (with ferry) is the result.

Nanaimo - Fishing Pier Perspective

A stroll along Nanaimo's seawalk is always a pleasant diversion. Near Maffeo-Sutton Park, the fishing pier juts out into the harbour, towards Protection Island. A visit generally leads to scenes of locals fishing or, more likely, crabbing. Stop for a chat.

Nanaimo - Bridge on the Colliery Dam Trail

It was Thursday and I'd dropped Hanne off at her volunteering. What to do but go for a stroll. On this Thursday, I opted for the Colliery Park in Nanaimo. As I recalled from previous visits, there's plenty of "green" to photograph. And, of course, as is most often the case in Nanaimo, the park trails are easy to walk.
