  • This is our third summer in a row spending time at Thunderbird RV Park out on the Tyee Spit in Campbell River BC. We absolutely love the park, town, and surrounding area.
    One of my favorite things to do is get up early around 7AM grab the beagle and take a walk along the waterfront. There are always interesting things going on and folks to chat to. The peaceful atmosphere and views can’t be beaten. A great way to start the day.
    This year I decided to bring the old video camera along during one of those walks and record it for you. We headed out on a warm sunny June morning and walked all the way down to the Discover Pier. On the return trip, I recorded some of the highlights and interesting spots. Hopefully, it gives you a glimpse into why we enjoy our summers so much here.

    Campbell River looks so calm. I used to live there when I was in my early teens. Ill be there the first week of June am visiting my dad, cousin and a few friends. My cousin is a fishing guide. I want him to teach me how to fish. I have never been before. Thanks for the video.

    Thanks for the video. I am thinking of spending next summer on Van Isl. Thunder Bird is one of the places I might park. This is a great intro for me.

    yes Dan, thank you very much for you and Angie showing me around all links & sights of Campbell River. My so works with BC Ferries out of Nanaimo. I lived in BC for 31 years and then moved to St. John's Newfoundland for 5 yrs. It's time to come home. I'm not sold on going back to White Rock. I have always liked the northern part of the island. I like the out doors and I leave here September 1st. May drive back again for the 4th time. What is the population there now. Best regards thx again Angie v.

    Great video Ray. We are coming to Campbell River in June and your walk helps us picture the town and waterfront . We are planning to Geocache in the area and the waterfront walk has a ton of them. I thought we had a lot of geocaching in Oregon but Vancouver Island is crazy with geocaching .Jeff T from Bend .

    My childhood friend's son and son-in-law live in Vancouver, it's a great place to visit! One year we did some exploring out of the city and visited Campell River also a nice place to visit. If you love great seafood, cool boats and cold water it's the place to be!! Round trip Chicago to Vancouver via WestJet, they rule!! Nice tour with some places we didn't have time to check out, thanks!!

    • @LoveYourRV
      @LoveYourRV  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      We usually visit Vancouver every year for a few days as we have family there too. Great city. Love the area down around Granville Island and False Creek.

  • @downundasvideos6402
    @downundasvideos6402 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for the interesting walk along the sea shore, it was very well done. It's good for us Aussies to follow a realaxing walk around an area that we probably won't get to in person. We were wondering how come Anne has a boat?

    • @LoveYourRV
      @LoveYourRV  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      You're very welcome. Anne uses the boat to sightsee, relaxation and view the wildlife and she just loves the ocean and being on the water.
      Here is a video I did last summer when I went out with her for a boat trip - th-cam.com/video/Joj2krIcuRM/w-d-xo.html

    We're considering a move from Ontario to the island. Not yet sure if Campbell River is too far north for us.

    • @LoveYourRV
      @LoveYourRV  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Campbell River is about as far north as you can go on the Island and still get pretty good weather. It gets much cooler, cloudier and wetter after that. That's why not a whole lot of people live on the north island. Campbell River usually is a little hotter in the summer and more snow in the winter than say Victoria.

    hi I watch your videos and you have great info on traveling. I have a question, I'm going to be driving a travel trailer for the first time, I'm in Fresno ca area, I'm trying to find out if there's anything routes to avoid, I'm heading up to Oregon and south Dakota. please help

    • @LoveYourRV
      @LoveYourRV  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's a lot of area to cover. I would recommend picking up the Mountain Directory. I will show you routes that have steep grades.
