Day 2 Victoria

I woke up early and enjoyed the view from our room. Found a little coffee shop a short walk away. Delicious coffee and a stuffed meat pastry for breakfast. Angela needed some tennis shoes and did a little shoe shopping. I know. I work in a shoe store and I shop for shoes on vacation. We didn't put enough money on our parking card and when I went out to put more on it we had a ticket on our window! We were so annoyed! I emailed a request to reevaluate the ticket. Who knows what they will decide. We had lunch at a cute sandwich shop and headed for a hike to Sitting Lady Falls. The countryside reminds me of Oregon. It's very pretty. On our way back we drove by the Hatley Castle. It wasn't open for tours until May, but it was neat to see anyway. 2 of the Xmen movies were made there. For dinner, we ate at an Italian restaurant that had amazing carbanera and delicious Tuscany Chianti wine. We found China town but didn't really get to explore as it was getting late. It was a very enjoyable day.Read more
