Victoria is !beautiful. That lovely building at the head of the bay is the Empress Hotel, I believe. High tea at the Empress is quite the thing. And the museum of natural history is absolutely wonderful. When we were last there, there was a slightly larger than life carving of some Indians (First Nation? Is that the correct term?) in a dugout canoe hunting whale. It was very impressive. And if I remember correctly there was also a full body-mount of a mammoth. It's a great museum. We loved Victoria.
My wife and I had the pleasure of stopping by for a few hours as the last stop of our Alaskan cruise. The town is absolutely beautiful and we both wished we had a few days to spend there. Thanks for bringing back the memories with those pictures.
We loved the cruise, but I want to go back to see the mainland. I hated going all the way up there and not being able to see McKinley, but time/funds didn't allow it. If you have any questions about the cruise let me know.
