Next on our quest to visit all of BC’s Southern Gulf Islands, we travelled to Galiano Island for two nights in October 2021. This was our first overnight trip with our baby girl (she was eight months old at the time). We were so excited, and a little nervous, to travel with a baby. Luckily, the trip was easy enough logistically that we minimized a lot of first-time parent stress, and it helped that our daughter LOVED every minute of it.
WEEKEND GUIDE: MAYNE ISLAND, BC
We had been meaning to explore more of the Southern Gulf Islands and had heard great things about Mayne Island in particular. Last summer, we looked ahead and saw that Canada Day would fall on a Wednesday in 2020, so we planned to take Monday and Tuesday off and make it a 4 night trip for the holiday.
WEEKEND GUIDE: OLIVER, BC
Oliver, BC is known as “Canada’s Wine Capital” due to more than 40 wineries in the area. We are not big drinkers and don’t know a whole lot about wine, but we were looking for a relaxing summer getaway in the Interior and we love how picturesque vineyards can be. We also picked Oliver for its close proximity to Osoyoos Lake.
