    Thanks JD and Chris. That will be great. It appears that the scarf is most likely held up at the border customs. Hopefully it will re appear very shortly now.

    I would have never imagined that it would take such a small parcel such a long time to clear customs.

    When I saw there were new posts today I was hoping the wee scarf had landed safely with the Kiltedknome.

    Thumbs up Re: Welsh Rugby Scarf Travel Log in Pictures

    Hurrah, Steve and I got back from a quick shopping trip this morning to find a package in our mail box. The scarf has arrived in Victoria! We will run to the shop in a bit and get the camera, try to take a photo somewhere in the Inner Harbour of Victoria, and then the scarf will "wing" its way to Downunder in Australia.

    Re: Welsh Rugby Scarf Travel Log in Pictures

    Here is the scarf with Steve in front of the Empress Hotel, built in 1908, with an interior reflecting the Edwardian Era.



    On the grounds of the Empress is the statue of Emily Carr, a Canadian artist -- and eccentric -- who lived from 1871 - 1945.



    Steve snapped a shot of me with the scarf in front of the Kwakwakawa’wakw Big House and pole. (Ten percent discount off the cost of an XMarks clan crest to the first member who can pronounce that!)



    Before we lost the light, we dashed over to the Inner Harbour and took this photo:



    And finally, a quick hop to the Legislature for this photo in front of the statue of Queen Victoria.



    Tomorrow Steve will take a few photos with KiltedWolfman, and the scarf will be sent on its way to Australia.

    Kiltedwolfman wanted to add his well wishes to the travelling scarf before I put it in the mail this morning.

    Re: Welsh Rugby Scarf Travel Log in Pictures

    Thanks for a great set of pics in victoria both, and for moving the scarf on so swiftly. Also thanks to Kiltedwolfman for taking out time for a pic as well.
    The Scarf has now visited 12 members and there are another 7 remaining members for the scarf to visit before it returns to me.
    I have now bought a book to monitor its continuing journey ..




    Thanks again everyone,
    Iechyd Da
