Where I live







As I have mentioned before I live on an island off the west coast of British Columbia, Canada. The island itself is called Vancouver Island but the city where I live is called Victoria. We are a 90 minute ferry boat ride away from Vancouver. Victoria is the capital city of British Columbia.

Today I went downtown to snap a few pictures of where I live. It was crazy down there as it's a long weekend and we have thousands of tourists in town. Tourism is one of our biggest industries and a lot of cruise ships stop here on the way to Alaska. Sometimes we have as many as 3 or 4 in port at once. You can imagine how many tourists this brings to town.

The pictures I have taken are of our inner harbour, the government buildings, the horse drawn carriages that go all over the down town area and the Copper Girl who poses like a statue. Hope you enjoy.
