I may be stretching the terms
doors and doorways this week.
Still in Canada’s
Vancouver Island.
Still in the Butchart Gardens,
this first image is a doorway leads us to
the Japanese Garden.
The gateway between old and new
Chemainus (presumably).
Finally, a fair dinkum doorway
taken from our horse and carriage
ride around Victoria.

The Ross Fountain in the Butchart Gardens.
It reminded me of a mini version of
the Dubai Mall Fountain
Victoria Harbour….
…just on…
…night fall.
I didn’t think of it at the time, however…
….I really wish I had taken a ride
on the H2O Taxi…just for fun.

During our travels of the past twelve months
we were fortunate to visit several gorgeous gardens.
Butchart Gardens, Schönbrunn Palace, Versailles Palace
and finally Hamilton Gardens in New Zealand.

The Gardens which I really wanted to visit were
The Butchart Gardens on Canada’s Vancouver Island.
We were so pleased that we arrived a day or two early.
This gave us time to look around Victoria
prior to our tour commencing.
Because of this we spent much more time exploring
Butchart the our tour had allocated.
We were just finishing a walk through the Sunken Gardens
when were were scheduled to leave.
Public transport took us back to Victoria
and we both would recommend this to anyone visiting
Victoria and Butchart Gardens.
