Jordan River

The trek from the parking lot at Jordan River wasn't very different from French Beach but I

enjoyed it immensely. Efforts had been made to make it somewhat safer which

I appreciated :)

I enjoy the suspense of going down down down until finally

the beach and water is revealed.

Of course on my way down I had to snap a few photos of the flora - more

fantastic ferns...

 I love how ancient ferns are - they've been around since the Jurassic period!

Finally I emerge from the trail and reach the beach

 - as I am just a few kilometres down the road from

French beach it isn't really anything new.

But to me it's worth looking at again.

View to my left...

View to my right - somewhere down there is the actual Jordan River.

Hey - I'm getting better timing the waves!

The Russians are coming.....!

I'm going to have the Dickens of a time deciding which photos

I'll turn into watercolour paintings - this one below is a contender!

 I have to say the size and amount of 

driftwood and tree fall 

on the island's shores boggles my mind! 

I saw many a warning sign and I obeyed!

 Hi everyone - having a terrific time exploring the coast!

The weather is perfect.

 Tree sculptures :)

Anyone know what these flowers are called?

 I turned and walked to my right (northwest) to see if I could

find the river but ran into a rock wall. 

Time to travel further along the coast. I want to walk

part of the Marine Trail in Juan de Fuca Provincial Park.

There is a section that runs from China Beach to

Mystic Beach - how can I NOT go to Mystic Beach!?

 Next up: The trail to Mystic Beach!
