Today we went island hopping! Vancouver Island has many adjacent islands that are reachable via the BC Ferry system. So we hopped on a ferry with our trusty bikes out of Buckley Bay, and headed first to Denman Island...

(note to self - come back and pick blackberries later!)

We biked and hiked...

a really pretty island...

We decided to keep going... so we hopped on another ferry and headed to Hornby Island. About 1200 people live on the island (mostly artists)... they make tons of pottery and love for tourist to stop by..

... and the beaches are beautiful too.

A full day, but we made it back to Nanoose Bay just in time for another gorgeous sunset!
