Goodbye Victoria

Today Queen Elizabeth waved goodbye to her great-great-grandmother's monarchy record. We visited Victoria then, we too, waved goodbye. A beautiful day, we strolled Victoria's streets doing a little window shopping. Miracle of miracles, John even found a pair of work shoes and was fitted in his real size by a "live" salesman. No mean feat (or is that feet?) if you have what I refer to as "cubic feet". Thanks to the water taxi guy in the photo below, John did not leave his new shoes behind on the dock. Aren't these little taxi's cute? Each one is custom made ($135,000), the first one being made in a garage in Quebec 25 years ago. There are a dozen of them running around the harbor.  Terry & Missy.. Don't you think you should have one at camp? Perhaps John should push the sailboat aside and start work on a little water taxi for TI Park.

In the photo below, our troup taking it easy on Fisherman's Wharf. Cute little boat houses behind them that are private residences although, with all the tourists around, I can't imagine even considering living there.

From yesterday, if you'd said flock, herd, trip or all of the above you would have been correct!

Trivia for today... Water taxis, sea planes, kayaks... What does a water ballet every Sunday morning in Victoria Habour?
