While visiting Victoria, we had to visit the Butchart Gardens. There's few gardens that hold my interest well enough, but Butchart is definitely one of the best.

The next day it was time to head over to Vancouver via ferry, bus, and light rail. The bus ride was longer than we expected, but overall it was a relatively smooth trip. The entire time spent at Victoria was bright and sunny, so it while it wasn't unplanned, we weren't expecting the dark clouds and rain that hit us on our first night. Still one of the most beautiful cities though...
