Fred, this is a wonderful post about Victoria. The You Tube video makes me want to move there - BUT I am cold today and it's in the high 70's.....;-) Beautiful area that I simply MUST put on my list of places to visit. ;-)
Hi Teri...The video does and awesome job describing Victoria, please drop in for a visit, we'd love to meet you and show you around.
Cheers, thanks for dropping by, come again soon :O)
Fred, I always love seeing your pictures of your absolutely gorgeous area. I had no idea about the weather, though! It's MUCH warmer there then here. I never would have known that, I think we automatically assume all of Canada is freezing :)
HI Carol......Now you know where to Come in the Winter..we normally do not see more than few weeks of Snow, this year I think in total we had three weeks in total, Weather has been Cooler, just above Freezing to 50 degrees during the day with a drop below freezing at night with Frost in the Morning. All in all the Winter has been fine this year, not a lot of Wind or Rain. Lots of Sun in January and February this year.
Come on over anytime, you'll love Victoria, Heck you might even move here, many others do :O))
Fred, You've sold me. I want to move there now!
