Victoria

I won’t be creating entries for my whole stay here. When we do something interesting or memorable I might create an entry – as in Wednesday night – we went to Spinnakers for dinner. We walked there – 40 minutes each way. I didn’t feel at all guilty having 2 beer with dinner.


There is a Tall Ship Festival going on in Victoria now. On Thursday we watched some the ships sail into the inner harbour. The most interesting, a replica of the Bounty, stayed too long way out in the outer harbour with her sails furled up, so I never got a good shot of her. The one at right is a smaller 2 masted ship called the Lady Washington. Ships are feminine it seems.


Friday we walked around the inner harbour. It was a maze of masts and rigging. We were all too frugal to pay $15 for a pass to visit the ships. The lineups were terrible anyway. This is a shot of a small part of the harbour where Bounty was moored.
