We've arrived! We are now in Victoria which was our final destination before heading back home. We left Sidney at 11:00am and headed south toward Victoria. As we cruised around the south tip of Vancouver Island we passed the Stanes Point lighthouse. It took us three hours which put us in the harbor at 2:00 - our anticipated arrival time. We were told to standby in the harbor as they decided where to have us dock. Coming into the Inner Harbor was very picturesque as we saw the Empress Hotel, the parliament building and other coastal shops.
We arrived in the marina and backed in to our slip. We are rafted to Ingrid and Gary Bruhner but with the stern against the dock, we can walk right on and off our dock! We are situated directly in front of the Empress Hotel and could not be happier! We even have a strong wifi signal here since we are right next to the office.
After a dinner of hearty appetizers on Jack and Moon's boat, we visited with people and I got a few pictures as the sun was going down. Larry and Cheryl invited us to their boat for ice cream cones so I was able to get some pictures from their fly bridge.
