Laid-back Victoria

What a lovely day, we woke to the sounds of the Inner Harbour of Victoria and we had no commitments until 6:00 pm, the day was ours, all to ourselves. Again the weather was perfect with a day more like Australia than our impression of Canada, clear blue sky and a max of 29. We walked and crawled all over the centre of the town finishing up with a lovely seafood meal overlooking the harbour. There was a meet of classic wooden boat for the long weekend (Labour Day) and we took lots of photo's for Geoff. We then had a tour of the harbour in a little power boat that ran tours for about 12 people at a time but we were the only couple so we had the tour all to ourselves. It was now time for our 6:00pm appointment with a horse drawn carriage around the old town of Victoria, very lovely and very relaxing. By the way, Isabel, his name was Bud. We finished the day with a swim and hot spa at the hotel. Today was "Back to Vancouver" A drive to the north of Victoria to the ferry terminal and a smooth 11/2 Hr crossing back to the mainland. A short stop at a fish hatchery before we got off the coach (for the last time) for a visit to a suspension bridge and a beautiful walk arround some giant trees. Terry has set herself a personal goal to walk the bridge and she did so with no problems - -well done!!!! We are now exhausted and are heading off to our room before the excitement of tomorrow's cruise on the Norwegian Wind
