At the RBCM we also toured the Stonehenge travelling exhibit.

The Stonehenge exhibit sparked more good discussion.

No event would be complete without lunch or a coffee break. This is near Thunderbird Park.

We visited the Deep Bay Marine Research Station to see a Komoks Fish trap. A member of the Komoks Nation described the importance of marine resources then and now.
