Thetis Lake

Yesterday, we had a nice little paddle in Thetis Lake. Just outside Victoria, Thetis is a deep lake carved out of the rock by the last retreat of the glaciers. It's beautiful and chock full of natural goodness.

Here our little fleet prepares to shove off.


Under the bridge -- always a test of steely nerves and raw courage.


We found a little stream and paddled up. It didn't go too far so we retreated back to the lake.


Turtles! Yes, we found some turtles sunning themselves on a log!




Bernie was so excited about the turtles that he got lost!


Clearly, I must have enjoyed another day paddling!
