John and I cycled the 50 kilometer round trip to Lighthouse Park over the weekend, not thinking that our efforts would be so amply rewarded. We walked through beautiful forest with towering trees to get to the rocky beach. We brought a little brunch of pomegranate salad, peanut butter and jam sandwiches and hard boiled eggs and enjoyed it looking out over the water. We could see Vancouver, North Vancouver, the Lion's Gate Bridge and Richmond from where we sat. Seagulls cawed around us. It was nice. Please go there next time you have a chance. You won't regret it.
Beautiful! I miss the ocean! And mountains, and lakes, and hiking and camping...
ReplyDeleteWait til you see our recent camping pictures from Manning Park! Then the true envy can begin.
ReplyDeleteWe loved Lighthouse Park, too! There was such variety of scenery - ocean, cliff face, rainforest, berry brambles... Josie still talks about all the berries she ate that day.
ReplyDeleteQuoc and I have cycled out there twice in the past week, a testament to what a lovely ride and destination it is. At least while hiking's off the agenda due to Quoc's blisters, cycling will have to do.
