I love Victoria. I love to walk. I love to walk with G in Victoria. 
Here are some of the things we saw. Look at the colors in this leaf. I want this leaf, with blue sky behind it, as fabric. We saw this leaf with Grandma B on a walk through the park.
This dragon guards China town. G and I spent a lot of time walking around Chinatown. I never thought it could happen, but I outlasted G in Chinatown. She actually asked to leave. (Shocking, really.)
This brass lion was a decoration on some sort of winch on a boat in Fisherman's wharf. Don't know what the thing did, but it was cool. 
If fishes were wishes, and I had the money, I would want a houseboat in Victoria. They were so funky and fabulous, and.. just dreamy. What a fantasy life.. of course I will ignore the annoying tourist (Hi!), the smell of bait, the expense, the cramped quarters, the impossible insurance costs, the total impracticality. Did I mention two of them were for sale?
