Now that we are into 2011, I need to firm up on my itinerary for my next visit to Vancouver island. God willing, in just nine weeks from now I should be on my flight across the pond, arriving in Vancouver early evening Saturday 5th March. As yet I am undecided whether to stay overnight in Vancouver or take a connecting flight to Victoria on the Saturday evening.
As the main purpose of my trip is to visit my relatives, my itinerary for the two weeks needs to include Parksville, where I will be based, also Courtenay, Port Alberni, Campbell River and Sooke but I would anticipate travelling by train from Parksville to Victoria on either Friday or Saturday 18th or 19th March and spending my last night or two in Victoria before boarding the ferry for Vancouver on Sunday 20th in time to catch an overnight flight home. Anyone up for a kilt night?
