I visited Miracle Beach in 2010 during the trip of a lifetime! It was a trip that I couldn't afford but one that I had to make!
The giant trees of the B.C. rain forest bordered the path to Miracle Beach!
Ideas and dreams can come true but you have to plan and then you must commit. Only then will they become a reality. I have two brothers and they live more than 8,500 kilometers away as the crow flies. I had never been to their homes and it was time to take my son to visit his uncles. I booked the tickets 6 months in advance and then momentum and decisiveness made it happen!
Milan to Frankfurt. Frankfurt to Vancouver. Vancouver to Victoria. Victoria to Port Hardy. Port Hardy to Prince Rupert! That's A Long Way!
Of course, with such a long trip there were many adventures along the way. One was stopping at Miracle Beach during the long drive from Victoria to Part Hardy on the Vancouver Island, a distance of just under 500 kilometers! In Canada the distances are immense!
The tide was out and it left behind large areas of beach, warm shallow pools of water and then the cold Pacific Ocean waters that lie between Vancouver Island and the Mountains of the British Columbia mainland!
A Wonderful Reunion And A Time to Bond Ensued!
Miracle Beach was aptly named in my case. It marked a turning point. In just one more LONG day I would be re-united with my two brothers and my Son would meet family members and see their homes for the first time! For my son and I it really was a miracle and the trip of a lifetime!
