Join us as we continue our Vancouver Island road trip south to Victoria, BC with highlights including stopping in Nanaimo to try the famous Nanaimo bars (Canadian dessert) along with a stop in Duncan to see the world's biggest hockey stick!
On a wet, rainy and windy morning we left our apartment in Comox with our first stop at Fanny Bay where I got a glimpse of crashing waves slamming against the shore. After more driving we stopped at Arbutus Grove Provincial Park to do a little hike and eat our picnic lunch.
After making it to Nanaimo we had to stop and grab the classic dessert bar from a couple of different places. First we went to Smokin' George's BBQ Restaurant to grab a nanaimo bar with bacon and dulce de leche. We then went into town and went inside Red's Bakery to grab a classic Nanaimo bar and another one with peanut butter.
En route to Victoria we stopped in Duncan to take a photo beside the world's largest hockey stick. This has been in Duncan for quite some time because I remember growing up on Vancouver Island and marvelling at it in my youth. The 205-foot hockey stick was made from Douglas Fir wooden beams reinforced with steel and weighs an astonishing 28,118 kg.
After arriving in Victoria we cooked up a quick dinner and ate the remaining Nanaimo bars. Stay tuned as a we have a sunny day adventure in the capital city of British Columbia to close off our series.
