Hi! We've just returned from a romantic getaway on the beautiful island of Galiano, where we spent four glorious days at the
Galiano Inn and Spa.
The mural in the lobby of the inn, which is made up of individual tiles, each painted by numerous artists from around the world.
We treated ourselves to a blissfully relaxing couples massage in the garden house.
This is where we enjoyed a wood-fired pizza on the ocean front terrace of the inn.
Located just off the coast of British Columbia, Galiano is considered the 'gem' of the Gulf Islands and boasts a Mediterranean climate, spectacular views of the surrounding islands, and magnificent wild life: orca whales, sea lions, cormorants, deer and otters.
View from The Bluffs, overlooking Active Pass.
An interesting carving I spotted on an old sail boat.
Enjoying the view from a sea cave we found at Montague Harbour. So glad I brought a hat as it was a scorcher of a day!
Now that we're back home, I'm trying to think of a way for us to permanently move to this wonderful island, or one of the surrounding ones! It's a dream for now, but one that I'm going to strive to make come true!
