Victoria

As mentioned I took the ferry from Vancouver to Victoria. I got in rather late, but Lauren and I eventually found each other. I 'checked-in' to her beautiful waterside apartment.

The next day (Saturday) we both needed to buy things for our planned camping trip, and she wanted some time to get things done, since she had just knocked off work the day prior. So, she left me in the city centre for sightseeing. I found a busking festival! It was great, and it being one of my few sun shiny days, I got sunburnt watching them! But... sunburn in North America is kinder than Sunburn in Australia.

The best busker I saw (and I blame him really for my sunburn) was an Argentine that holds 4 world records for tricks with soccer balls. His name is Victor Rubilar... if you want to look for him.

On Sunday Lauren and I went to the famous and absolutely beautiful world famous Butchart gardens. Wow. We even had High Tea there.

Butchart Gardens, Victoria.

The timber industry has long been massive in British Columbia. As testament to this, there is a street in Victoria which is paved in timber, as you can see.
