Back to Vancouver

Today we decided on a ferry ride to Vancouver Island to see the State Capital Victoria, however due to high winds in the Strait we had a slow ride across, 2 hours instead of 1hr and 15 mins which left only a short time exploring as its a 80 Km drive from Nanaimo to Victoria. It was bright and sunny most of the day and you can see evidence of the damage caused by the recent storm all over. Some parts of Vancouver Island had no power for a week.

Leaving Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal                                                              On the Sun Deck boy!!! was it cold

Looking across to Nanaimo from the Sun Deck                                                  Looking across the Straits of Georgia

The next ferry waiting to dock at Nanaimo                                                       On the Seafront at Victoria looking at the Empress Hotel

The Inner Harbour at Victoria                                                                            Well what can I say!!!!
