Just another day in Victoria, BC.

Gargoyles...not just in Paris anymore! This fellow was frowning down from an old bank building.



The view from the inner harbour in Victoria. This is the view from very near the famous "Empress Hotel".



The view from the Malahat. This is from the very top of the Malahat...driven to travel from Victoria to places north on Vancouver Island. In this case, it was for me to get to Nanaimo to visit my darling friends!



Oh look! Me fixing my car!



Ah, Darth Fiddler. Every city needs one.

And tonight...Weird AL!!
I'm so excited. Hope he does "White and Nerdy". I'm thinking about making that my personal theme song!

    I love Victoria. You never know what you're going to find there. I love Craigdarroch Castle. How many cities have their own castle?

    Gotta love Weird Al.

    And I sometimes think his "White & Nerdy" is speaking out to me directly--I mean, even the Earl Grey tea bit. :)
