Day 14!!!!!!

The flowers, the trees, even the grass was beautiful today as we visited Butchart Gardens in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. We crossed the border today on the ferry at 9:30 this morning to find that Canada is an amazing place to see. After the sights of the Butchart Gardens ,we headed to downtown Victoria where we drove down government street. We got our first look at Canadian money when we realized the parking meter was not going to take american money. We then saw the magnificent Parliament building and the old Empress Hotel. We also walked down to the dock where we saw a number of performers. One who was juggilng fire over a volunteer from the crowd. We even got to see a human statue He was awesome. After a day among the Canadians, we settled into a nice Traveler's Inn where we will rest for the night.
