VICTORIA

Our last port on our cruise was Victoria, B.C.  We had so much fun there.  Lots of amazing architecture and the flowers were incredible (that is a post all on its own)!  This was the only place where we encountered rain, but it didn't stop us from touring the town.  Here are some of the highlights.

The namesake of the town...Queen Victoria.

A Victorian government building.

The beautiful Empress Hotel.  Look at that ivy!

A Wyland painting on a building.  I loved how weathered it looked.  

My sister and a bear. She really was as excited as she looks to pose with it. She loves critters.

One of our sights was a great gothic castle. I honestly cannot remember the name of it though. We literally walked uphill in the rain several miles to reach it. Luckily for us, we were rewarded with a beautiful rainbow!

Seriously...I am almost done posting vacation photos. Just a few more!
