Victoria in Canada

Great day in Victoria. First was the ferry ride. It took about 1 hour.

Yes!!! Our Captain said look to your right at about 12 o'clock for a pod of whales. Well I ran out side to get pictures! They were Orca's.
Three of them. A male and two females. The captain called them transients, just passing through.

A fishing boat just arrived in Victoria. The Captain said look at the blue fin tuna in the blue bag.


Arriving in Victoria.

I loved the way the sun came through the clouds.



The gardens where amazing. You can read up on them by clicking on this link:







Classic wooden boat show.

The only time we had left was to go to the Parliament building. A very good choice.







These kids where waiting for the Parliament tour also. They are from Brazil and spoke Portuguese. People are the same everywhere.




Our tour bus driver said the average 3 bedroom house in Canada is $600.000 and gas is $4.95 a gallon. We are leaving tomorrow and heading EAST. Stayed tuned!
