Our day started early in the morning (7.30!) with pancakes and maple syrup. Mampf Mampf! Afterwards we got some nice! orange Lifeguard-Overalls. We felt like we make a trip to the moon… :) have a look at the pictures, they speak for themselves. With 17 other tourists and 2 nice guys we boarded on a boat and went for whale watching. We drove approx. 30 minutes to the upstream feed grounds of the yearly coming whales on their way from California to Alaska and back. After waiting and observing we saw 2 grey whales respectively their fountain and parts of their backs – unfortunately not more… Anyway it was very impressive to be so close to these peaceful giants! Additionally we saw sea otters, sea cows and cormorants. Neither sank nor sea sick we left Tofino in direction to Port Alberni – on the way we made a stroll trough the rainforest to a wonderful beach.
In the car totally unexpected Michelle was screaming: Look, another bear! No, there was not only one black bear, a few kilometres further we saw 2 more!!!! Unbelievable – in this moment we conceived that we are really in bear land…
In Port Alberni we went straight to the Mc Lean Mill National Historic Site to visit an old sawmill. We just arrived when the demonstration began. One more time it was very impressive.

Hello together!
Thanks a lot for your stories and pictures! Pictures which tell me that you must really have a lot of fun and that you are enjoying your journey.
Your fellows in office at home are doing well and we stay in summer with its known heat in the 4th floor.
Now i'm enjoying saturday evening in Sulgen with some cold bear :). And tomorrow we are looking forward to the final of the european championship in football - Germany against Spain.
So keep well ! Kind regards Richard
