Butchart Gardens was the first stop on the visit. It's situated just a few miles North of Victoria and sports 55 acres of fantastic gardens.
This is just a sample of the wonderful scenes found in the garden. It's in a area called the sunken garden which was a former gravel pit.
The Dahlia garden was by far the favorite. The flowers were as big as dinner plates with spectacular colors.
Gail found a golden frog in the garden and since she already has her "prince charming" she decided the kiss would get her some gold.
So.... she gave it a try....... no gold yet.... we're still waiting and hoping.
After a afternoon of touring and walking downtown Victoria we headed home and were presented with a great sunset view of Victoria.
So long to Canada after a great day.
Do we look tired? Nope.... the 90 minute ferry ride home was great..... rain, an awesome sunset, lightening, more rain and finally US soil again.
What a day. Bed felt really really good.
