My most memorable VICTORIA is its well-designed city and the most beautiful garden I've been to: the BUTCHART GARDEN. Tulips were grown everywhere & I've the time of my life just photographing them. It was a very short trip from Vancouver & I was actually on a tour group. So much to see & yet so little time...
