Storm Watching In Ucluelet

November 16, 2010
The last few months have been packed with events, dates, jobs, classes, workouts, social networking, family, friends, oh my God the list goes on! I operate on high stress all day long, rushing from here to there, A to B, and sometimes C. Quite often, I feel like I just need a moment to stop and breathe.

 

Adam and I took last Friday off work to go spend a long weekend breathing in the fresh island air. We stayed at a fairly new place called Black Rock Resort in Ucluelet, BC. It’s about 3 hours from the Nanaimo ferry and very close to Tofino. The drive in itself is worth the trip. The views (shown at the beginning and end of the video below) along the highway are breathtaking, like looking at a painting come to life! Black Rock Resort was also beautiful and gave a sense of privacy like a cabin, but with all the bonuses of staying at a resort. We spent our 4 days relaxing, storm watching, walking on the beach, sitting in the hot tub, cooking delicious meals, and enjoying each others company. I couldn’t have asked for a better weekend even if I tried.

Rather than boring you with a million photos here on le blog, I have compressed them into a lovely Windows Movie Maker film. Sigh, one day I’ll have a MacBook and can kiss these ghetto videos goodbye! Enjoy xoxo

    It looks like you guys had a wonderful long weekend. I love the video you made. It doesn't look ghetto.. a bit vintage looking though which is nice. I really like the photographs of you and your boy by the beach. You guys are too cute.
