Well, Graham and I are truly on holidays now. My time at the FoVA Conference in Niagara Falls is now over and we were driven back to Toronto Airport and then caught a plane to Vancouver. From there a quick trip to another gateway to catch a flight to Victoria Island (very tight timeframe) and we were concerned our luggage might not keep up with us, but it did.  We spent over 5 hours in the air altogether.

The view from the window flying back to Vancouver was breathtaking – seeing the rockies poking up through the clouds.  I couldn’t resist having my camera out on the plane 😉

We then caught a taxi to our hotel, The Hotel Grand Pacific, in Victoria and after a briefing with our Tour Director we went for a wander out in the streets before it got too dark.

Theoretically speaking we got up at 3.30am today –  B.C. time but in actual fact it was 6.30 Niagara time.  We’ve crossed another timezone and am now 17 hours behind Melbourne time.  It’s currently 11.18pm so guess I should be going to bed but still excited about getting here and being on holiday.

It is absolutely gorgeous here and I can’t wait to start taking more photos in the morning.
