In August after we finish our class, I'm going to stay in BC and have a staycation. On August 10th, the day after class ends, my parents are flying in from Toronto. The next day, we will all take the ferry to Victoria to visit my aunt and uncle. We will stay there for three days. Then we will drive to Tofino. We will go swimming and surfing in the ocean. My mother wants to go whale watching. After a week, we will drive up to Comox and take the ferry to Powell River. Then we will drive down the Sunshine Coast back to Vancouver. We will take two days to drive back to Vancouver. I'm really looking looking forward to spending time with my favourite people in my favourite places in my favourite time of year.
