Travel Haiku - Hornby Island (Canada) Poem by john tiong chunghoo

Hornby Island
the sea is the blue
i wish my dream is painted

Hornby Island
between the swimming sessions
my hands shuffle between flour

Hornby Island
mountain and sea
teach me how to take you

Canada isn't just for snow sports and winter activities—this summer head to Hornby Island, just off the east coast of British Columbia's Vancouver Island. Here on Hornby Island, tranquil swimming beaches infiltrate rugged mountains and lush rainforests. Board BC Ferries from Vancouver Island and leave the car parked back mainland. Bring your bike instead, as roads are paved and relatively uncrowded, making it an ideal way to get around smoothly. Peddle to the bi-weekly Farmers' Market, where its motto, 'make it, bake it, grow it, ' rings true.
