Another day I took a ride on one of the small Victoria harbour ferries, or pickle boats as they are nicknamed, piloted by James from Aberdeen, Scotland.
I went to see Craigdarroch Castle
The obligatory kilt shot in front of the Empress Hotel.
Hiking on an old rail trail, known as the Galloping Goose trail.
Beacon Hill Park
Gaze towards the USA.
Twenty miles across the water can be seen Mount Angeles and Mount Olympus in Washington State, USA. As I stood on Beacon Hill I recalled that last time I was here Ann and her mum and my aunt had all been beside me. Now I was here alone, yet thanks to xmarksthescot and my clan society activities I now have many new friends in that country across the water, perhaps I shall visit that new land some time soon.
