Magic Sky Over Magic Lake – Pender Island, British Columbia, Canada

View from North Pender
We recently had a rainy time on the island. The day we arrived it was blowing a gale (literally….Environment Canada had the warning up and everything!) and we had periods with rain dashing down. The travel and weather had clearly … Continue reading

Peter Cove South is a quiet little spot that we walk to often. It is a driftwood ringed cove in the Trincomali area of North Pender. We always seem to have the rock beach to ourselves. Our children love scrambling over the driftwood … Continue reading
