My luck with the weather continues. It turned out bright with sunny spells for my first day in Victoria on Vancouver Island. The journey here yesterday consisted of a bus, a train, a bus, a ferry and another bus to the centre of Victoria where I was met by Shannon, who I'm staying with here, before catching a final bus to her apartment. The ferry trip through the gulf islands was very misty and atmospheric.
Today I've enjoyed the Royal BC Museum with excellent exhibits about First Nations culture as well as history after Europeans arrived, and some really good natural history stuff as well. Then Shannon and I had a walk through the picturesque Beacon Hill Park to the sea shore, and back along the waterfront where there is a delightful colony of houseboats.
