Although, we moved a year ago, we didn't really do a lot of exploring in our new area. I was training for long distance triathlons, which ate a lot of time and energy. Now, one of our priorities as a family is to get more acquainted with the beauty that surrounds us.
This weekend, we took a drive to the Balfour-Kootenay Bay ferry. I'd taken this ferry by myself last summer, and we finally made it back as a family. It's worth going on in and of itself, never mind getting to the other side.
The views are stunning and pictures don't do them justice.

We hadn't really planned what to do on the other side, so spent some time driving to a park only to hit a closed sign. We turned around and went the other way and found ourselves heading to Pilot Bay Provincial park. Once there, we found a trail that led up to a little lighthouse.
The lighthouse isn't in service anymore, but it is maintained as a historical site. The cool thing is, you can actually go in and climb up to the top.
