Up at 6.00am & a walk into downtown Vancouver for breakfast before boarding the coach for our ferry to the island. Looks like we're having a slow & boring start to the day, coached out to the ferry, unfortunately they insist on getting us here far too early for our liking!!! We're now heading towards the island, taking 1.5hrs to get there, feeling bored now after our non stop day yesterday, still beats the hell out of crunching numbers on a spreadsheet!!! Cloudy & dull today, hopefully the sun will come out soon so I can get some good photos in... Not sure what I think about Victoria, not that much to do, plenty of parks & gardens & that's about it!!! Went on a 90 min open top tour bus, a tad chilly as we went round the bays... Brrrr!
Day 2 here, first stop Willies for an excellent breakfast. am now fit to burst! Round the corner & we bump into Mr Michael C Williams... See photo! Back to the harbour & a sit down, it's hot here, just want to fall asleep, oh, can now hear the strains of the bagpipes, off we go to investigate & there's Glen from Scotland... see next photo! Ach aye the noo!!! Now mooching around, seriously not much happening here & we bump into Robert Whittle & yet another photo, originally from Yorkshire now writing books in Canada, so we both purchased one of his novels entitled 'Lizzie.' We're now passing the afternoon on some very comfy settees on the front of
Browns, after a couple of mojotos we now feeling much better!!! Can't wait to get out of here, we're on the 5.45am to Vancouver tomorrow morning, yes that's 5.45am!!!!!

jackie mccarthy Glad to hear you are up and about and are off into the wild blue yonder! Hope you have packed your winter woolies in your capsule wardrobe - looks like you might be needing them or alternatively you could warm yourself up on the next Mountie/Lumberjack you come across! Hope you are having a great time - Love The Office Girlies
Andy M Just like driving to Abingdon then!
