Trip to Victoria part Deux

Sunday evening ended with a game of basketball and then Monday morning I was off to the local office. Finally able to put faces to voices and names. At the end of the day I headed to my hotel where Doug & Amanda met me then we walked down to the inner harbour and had dinner at Milestones. Had fun with the camera a little bit...at the end of the meal we walked around the harbour a little bit then headed back to the hotel and home (for Doug & Amanda) and an evening of relaxing for me. Tuesday came bright and early but beautiful and sunny. It was so weird to walk down streets I have walked many many times in days gone by...so much has changed and yet so little. I didn't get a chance to head over to the university and the areas immediately around it, but part of me is glad. There are many memories around that place...I decided to leave those for another trip!

Canada Day found us packing up the car and heading up island to the Cowichan Lake area. We pumped up the dinghy and tube (or rather, Doug did!) and then headed into the river. 2 hours of floating and a few encounters with minor rapids and we were done for the afternoon! At least until the fireworks started later in the day.

All in all, it was a great trip! And despite the EARLY morning required for me to catch my flight back to Kamloops, and the slight pick-up mix-up at the airport in Kamloops, it went off without anymore hitches (couldn't really get worse after the flight on Saturday!!). Glad to be home and so is my cat! :)
