What's it all about?...

Day 12 – Vancouver Island and the back of beyond....




We have left Vancouver, sailed across international waters, (for a while we were in the US of A....), and now we are in our little cabin overlooking the Ocean, relaxing with a lager.

The capital of Vancouver Island is called Victoria, and it's a wonderful place, it looks very English, there's a Captain Cook statue and several posh looking hotels – it seems like a step back to Bournemouth in the 1950's , ( I imagine!).

After a wander around Victoria we set off to our cabin in “Sooke”, only it's not actually in Sooke, its about 10 miles North west – the scale of things changes when you get closer, from Kimberley in Nottingham you may as well say “just up the road from Victoria”, but when you're here it's really 40 miles away Victoria!

The place is lovely, it has all the amenities we need, but no Internet! So blogging will be less frequent, I'll have to go into Sooke library every other day! Never mind, I'm sure you'll cope!
