That's what it says on our license plates, here in B.C., and it is. There is another 'slogan' out there, on some plates, but I'm not a fan of that one. I'll stick with Beautiful British Columbia.
With all the Olympic talk going on, lack of snow, warm spring-like temperatures, I'm feeling very British Columbian. I've posted a few pics of B.C. today.
Tofino, B.C. at sunrise.
Locarno Beach, Vancouver B.C.
The tiny town of Hedley, B.C.
West Arm Bridge - Nelson, B.C.
Totem poles at Stanley Park in Vancouver, B.C.
If you have a spare 9 minutes, this is an interesting look at Vancouver and Victoria, in 1936, by James A. Fitzpatrick for Traveltalks.
One more thing....happy Australia Day to my husband Rob, and all Australians!

It's true British Columbia is BEAUTIFUL! My hubby leaves on Monday to police the Olympics (he's RCMP)

Janis,
Happy belated Australia Day to your other half. I know little about your part of the world, but after seeing your images, and following your blog, I'm intrigued.

love the bridge in Nelson and the slightly trippy feel, makes you feel like a time traveler or something looking at it, reality suddenly brought into focus sort of thing...
It looks so lovely and kind of magical! It seems like there would be something new to find around every corner!
I really need to plan a trip to Canada! It looks so lovely. I especially love the beach & the kayak photos! xo
All of these images are absolutely beautiful Janis! You live in a marvelous place!
Superb pictures! Thanks for sharing, and have a terrific time in BC!
