After publishing our blog entry from yesterday we spent a wonderful evening driving down to Victoria along the coast seeing many magnificent and expensive houses along the way. A quick check online showed that some of them were in the $14.5 million dollar range. Their views of the ocean are beautiful and we enjoyed the evening sunshine.

In Victoria we specialized on the floating houses at the harbour. They are very colourful and often had amusing signs and details.

Of course there had to be an ice cream for all four of us.

The next day we walked into Sidney again, this time on our own. We stopped at one of the piers where we watched the seagulls and crab fishing. We enjoyed the area as much as we did on the first day.

While strolling through town we stopped in a couple of shops where Ruth found a very colourful sweater at a fair trade store. After all the shopping we needed some food and found the Taco Shell restaurant. The person serving us was super nice and multilingual having come from Egypt and speaking some German and French. The burritos were excellent!

No map for today.
