Kayaking - Day 4

The final day we woke up and packed up again. This was much easier as we were able to ditch the frslesh water we had been carrying and almost all the food was gone. We left had Island on a flat see,  with not much to see. I'd forgotten that the day before we saw a curious seal watching us from the water between the Brabants. It's huge,  grey eyes anticipating our next moves. 

We headed towards Lyall Point and skirted Vancouver Island's coast. The water was flat and we scanned the horizon and willed the wildlife to come to us. 

Next we stopped on a beach near a house. This was 'golf ball beach'  Erica told us. Kevin 'Mr Google' wondered where the balls came from,  so we told him they were from a special species of oyster which produces the golf balls for the entire world and resides only on this beach. He's an intelligent man,  he wasn't fooled. We drank water,  we used the 'facilities' we kicked balls around.

Then it was on,  across David Channel,  to have lunch at the Stopper Islands. And what a lunch! We had cheese. And tagliatelle with tahini,  pumpkins seeds and sunflower seeds.  We had bagels and a sort a chutney thing. We had apples and salmon. It was delicious. After lunch we had a little rest before heading off on our final leg.  To Secret Beach (it isn't,  there's a big sign and arrow pointing to it), before unloading everything and heading back in a van,  past Maggie Lake towards Ucluelet.

After saying our goodbyes we drove back to Nanaimo,  arriving late so that we could catch an early ferry the next day as I'd booked a baseball game.
