RT Pt 3

Tofino is a wonderful place. I appreciated that we got to see a different side than most visitors: What it's like to live there, due to hanging around with Will who is quite involved with the community that lives there all the time. We were walking home after supper one night when a kid came shooting out of an alley on his bike, then stopped and said, "Hey, Rev." Everywhere we went Will seemed to know someone.
 There was a pancake breakfast at the Legion on Sunday before church. On Monday Will and I went to the movie night at the town office, where he was the ticket seller and when you buy popcorn for the movie you get it in a stainless steel bowl.
We went to the beach a couple of times and watched surfers. And we went whale watching and saw three grey whales, which was quite amazing. Will got to go for free because that is the deal for locals if there is room.
Drove to Victoria yesterday and are staying at this motel which looks on the outside like an old-school dump but is extremely clean and nice inside. Butchart Gardens today. We both loved being there. We are leaving tomorrow and have yet to decide if we are going to head right home via Kelowna or go back through the States. No reason really to go to the US except that we can. After talking to Grady this morning on FaceTime we kind of want to get home. We are not that great on decision making.
