Birds of a Feather Bed and Breakfast

When I left the Ontario Hospital Association my colleagues gave us a gift certificate for a local bed and breakfast as a wedding gift.  We finally got around to using it for an anniversary celebration.
After hiking at East Sooke Park we headed over to check in.

This place caters to vacationers, and the room had a big selection of local area maps. This one was especially informative.  Kyle says "so THAT'S how to get to Whistler!"

There was a telescope in the room, which was actually really neat for checking out the great view of Esquimalt Lagoon and Harbour.

 
We checked in rather early in the afternoon, so we decided to splurge on a movie and dinner out at a local restaurant called My Chosen in a town called Metchosin. 
We enjoyed a bottle of champagne when we got back to the B&B - In the lovely plastic wine glasses that were provided in the room.

 Kyle took some long-shutter photos of the lagoon when it got dark - The view was gorgeous!

  1. M! I'm so glad that place turned out to be a great mini vacation and did not disappoint! Yay! It looks like it was really a lovely and pretty spot - wish I could go there to see for myself!
