Today I received email from Nuppu and Heikki
Hi Maria(Nuppu) and Heikki,
It is so nice to hear from you. So it is already snow in Calgary now? Luckily I do not live in Calgary.
I spent time working and sleeping, and walking in nearby mountain/lake, if I am not doing the former two task, after my true north/moose trip. It is a real headache to organze my over-a-thousand picture. So please tuned for my picture.
I wish I can go to Kananaskis too. But it seems so far away. Wish you have a good weather for your hike!
Ann.

OK. Let's decide in Nanaimo. But if we really rent a car, I prefer to
rent for the day in Tofino too. Our trip will not be restricted by the
Tofino bus schedule then.

Sylvia, it can be quite an experience driving a car on the ferry, if you
don;t mind a looooooong wait at the terminal (typical 2-4 hours!!)
I think my concern, if not problem, of driving is that I do not want to
driving on unfamilar road in a RAINYday. Can we be flexible about
driving to/from Victoria/Tofino?

About Friday, I'll be going to a potluck party around 6pm, what time u guys will arrive the terminal? Hopefully I can pick u up before that time. Sorry I have to abandon u guys because a friend from church is leaving for US, we r throwing a surprise farewell party for her. But if u guys r not too sleepy, we can go for dessert later at night or stay home and chat some more. What do u think?
