Thursday Oct. 1~~~~We left Salmon Point Campground heading for Victoria, BC about 10:30 AM We have plenty of time to arrive there, as we aren't taking the ferry today. We are spending the night in line for the first ferry leaving tomorrow morning at 10:30 AM. If we would ride there in the morning, we would have to get up at 4:00AM again, and we don't want to do that, if we took a later ferry, we would get to Port Angeles, Washington, late at night with no place to stay. It worked out real good getting there at 4:00 PM and getting in line for the first ferry leaving in the morning. They told us to open our slides and make ourselves at home, which we did (picture) Kent even started the generator and we watched all our favorite shows on TV after we walked all over Victoria stopping for a nice dinner in the marina(picture). Of course we had to go to the "Empress Hotel"(picture) and walk through it. The evening was so beautiful with the lights shining on the water and the people were so friendly, we enjoyed our long walk around Victoria (pictures) before retiring to our home on wheels.
