Home, sweet home.

by LIsaanne - last update: Feb 9, 2006

The garden city...

Well what can I say about Victoria? I love it and it's home. I wish that I could come here more often.. If fact, I wish that I could come here evreyday. If I could, and I have nothing to do but enjoy the city I would (not in any order):
-Magically make it summer (no rain please)
-Drive to UVIC and walk through the Gardens
-Have a picnic at Fort Rodd Hill
-Go to Royal Roads
-Feed the Seals
-Go to the Yacht club and convince somebody to take me for a sail (sailors are nice people, someone always wants to take you)
-Eat at 5th street
-Have lunch at Sam's bakery
-Go to Tim Hortons (really you can do that anywhere in Canada)
-Have tea at Point no Point

Actually there are so many beauiful things to do in Victoria I could fill up a whole lifetime doing them. A girl can dream no? Well, write me if you are going to visit and I'll help you figure out what you should go and see,

To get here you can take a ferry from Vancouver, which I reccomend. Often you can see pods of Orcas along the route. Everybody should visit Victoria.
My grandmother and I at my home in Victoria

My grandmother

This is my grandma, I lvoe her very much. I love my whole family very much.. I wish that she would stop smoking though, its now about two PACKS a dady. Way way way too much, Nana, I hope you read this, I love you and want you to be healthy forever, ok??

My cats

I have two cats that live with my mother in Victoria and one that lives with a friend in Spain. I love animals, all kinds, except perhaps some bugs, which gross me out. But for the most part... If you ever decide to get a new pet go to the SPCA!!
