Day 11, June 26, 2010 Today we are taking the ferry over to Victoria, BC. The trip takes about 3 hours each way. The weather is overcast and the temp is about 50 degrees and chilly(very). The water is rough and before we got there I began to feel a little uneasy. By the time we arrived, the weather had cleared and the temp was probably in the mid 60s. When we got there, we purchased tickets for the garden and walked to the bus depot. Along the way, we enjoyed the architecture of the buildings; very European. At the garden, Floyce took lots and lots of pictures. There were separate gardens for Italian and Japanese style flowers. There was a rose garden and a sunken garden. It was truly beautiful. When we got back to the bus terminal in Victoria, we took a leisurely stroll along the harbor. There were artists all along the way, musicians and a juggler who had attracted quite a crowd. On the trip on the ferry, back we were treated to a salmon and chicken buffet. As we neared Bellingham harbor we encountered the guy on the jet ski who had quite a time in our wake. I’ll try to insert a video clip. Heading on down I5 we spent the night in Marysville, WA.
