July 11 - Victoria

Happy 20th Anniversary. We had to get up early so we could make the 8:30 ferry in Horseshoe Bay. Our luck has been great; we got there and only had to wait a short time to board. I stood on the outside desk for a while, but the wind coming off the water made it very cold. It took about 1 ½ hours to cross over to Vancouver Island.

The temperature here is so nice and everything is so pretty. We bought sandwiches for lunch and ate them in a park in Chemainus. They have lavender growing all over. I’m going to try and grow some when I get home. We got to Victoria around 2; our room is on the 14th floor and overlooks the Inner Harbor. We have a nice view of all the yachts and ferries. Stan told the clerk at the front desk it was our anniversary and they sent up a bottle of wine.

We walked around and found a nice place for dinner, and made reservations to come back later. Our feet were sore and we were tired so we went back to our room with a view and enjoyed the feather pillows. The room was the smallest of all, but the sheets and pillows were so soft. After a nice dinner we spent time watching the street performers on the Inner Harbor. Stan and I think we have seen the juggler before in New Orleans.
