Victoria Riding Tour

Tuesday morning was up to me, so I decided some riding would be in order. The map of the Victoria area shows the route followed. Basically turn left from the hotel and follow the road, with the occasional sign to clarify the direction at various locations. The route follows the coastline most of the way.

Ship in Strait of Juan de Fuca

Looking across the Strait of Juan de Fuca to the Olympic Mountains, and passing ship traffic. Ships headed to Vancouver, Seattle or Tacoma (in fact anywhere between Vancouver BC and Puget Sound and Hood Canal) travel this route.

A closer view of the above - Gonzales Bay. I expect these would be expensive homes!
