We had originally planned to spend a couple nights in Victoria after leaving Sidney, but the weather is looking pretty crappy. The others are planning to head north, I think we'll be heading back to the good ol' USA, weather permitting.
Little Izzy did fine - this is not her first time in Canada; she is an old pro at this international stuff. She stayed in the v-berth on the way over, but came out when she heard the sound of her lunch being prepared.
We hoofed it around Sidney - a lovely town. This is a holiday weekend (Victoria Days - we didn't know), so some of the shops weren't open. We had a great lunch, walked around town, stopped in a few shops, but the only thing that followed us back to the boat was bakery goods... I was thinking some of this would be good for breakfast... yeah, it's probably not going to last that long. ;-)
No internet for us on the boat, since we don't have Canada coverage with our cell plan. We turned off our phones to keep from getting the surprise we got when we last anchored off Stuart Island... it's in US waters, but gets a good cell/data signal from Canada. And, a good bill to go with that! I'm on here in the marina lounge... just a short half mile walk from the boat! We are getting our exercise these days (anywhere you go from the marina at Friday Harbor is uphill).
Time to go - they're going to lock up the lounge.
