The colors of Victoria ~

Monday was « Do the tourist thing » day. Courtesy of the fine folks at Landsea Tours, S. and I went for a Click to enlargeday excursion to Victoria, the pampered way. Leaving at 8:00 am and returning around 9:30 pm, the full day tour was fun, simple and... free!

Victoria is a most colorful and flowered city and even though I’d never want to live there, it always tickles my shutter-itchy fingers. We finally visited the famous Butchart Gardens and were even lucky enough to spot a pod of killer whales from the ferry.
