Comox, Canada

We caught the ferry from Vancouver to Vancouver Island and drove up to Comox to visit David's parents.  On the first day of our visit the weather was cool and wet, so we spent the day indoors, but the next day was a beautiful sunny day.  Fortunately for us, it so happened that the Canadian Snowbirds were also in Comox that week to practice, so with the ideal weather we went to watch them in action.  They put on a fantastic display in their Canadair CT-114 Tutor jets, showing their remarkable skills   The Snowbirds demonstration team is made up of members of the Royal Canadian Airforce and not only are they very good at what they do, but they are also wonderful ambassadors for Canada.  
After a good visit with David's parents, we drove down to Victoria where we spent the night, before catching the ferry the next morning to Anacortes in the US state of Washington.
