Rain, wind and driving

We woke up pretty late for us at 08:00, had breakfast and headed off on a nearly 500 km drive to Ucluelet on the west coast of Vancouver island. People come here to see the rainforest and surf. Well today it's definitely getting a lot of water. It's rained pretty much all day and the wind is extremely strong, gusting to 120 kms per hour. All this means we haven't really done that much today except drive and have a look at Ucluelet and the nearby Tofino and take a quick peek at the beach and Pacific Rim national park. Tomorrow we're heading for Victoria and we'll either take the boat straight to Vancouver or hang around the city. Fingers crossed that it stops raining.
