30 August a rainy day on the west coast

Tuesday 30 August
The weather had not abated. Despite thinking we could manage a visit to the salmon hatchery, we arrived and it was closed. So we headed back to town for coffee and a visit to the local supermarket. It’s always interesting checking out local shops.

Who needs a mower when such an attractive visitors comes to eat the grass

Many different spices (also to the left and right)

The salt you have when you don't want (and I suppose, can't have) salt!!!!

No pink marshmallows!

Along with honey - many varieties of maple syrup - of course!

As the weather got worse, we returned to our B&B and relaxed for the rest of the day.

Having had such a terrific dinner on our first night in Ucluelet, we decided to return to the Black Rock resort restaurant. Unfortunately a bus group had arrived (poor old souls from the UK would have had a very wet day touring!). So, once again, it was very lucky we eat early as the place was almost full when we arrived.

A to die for seafood chowder

Some squid

... and a plate of prawns
