We really enjoyed our stay at the @ferngullycabins last week, I loved Jordan River. Our trip to the island unfortunately ended with our car getting broken into and they left nothing but broken glass. This is one of the few photos I have from the trip and everything I’m wearing in this photo is now gone. Items can be replaced but the 12 years of photos on our hard drive cannot. Needless to say, we won’t be going back to Vancouver Island anytime soon. Time to make some new memories ❤️

It was a short but sweet adventure that ended in amazing views, some blisters and a yummy ice cream 😋 📷: @mmcreatives_photography
