Old Victoria
I made it a mandatory rule the we will not ride our bikes on our day off. Right out of the hostel I was jumping up and down, walking on my own two legs. The ground felt good but after walking for six hours I started to hate it. Walking was overrated and we all just wanted to get on the bike again.
The city was happening. There was big jazz festival that I did not have much time to explore for I was exploring the city itself. I walked around the bay and tried to see what Victoria was like. It felt different then Canada and for some few moments I thought I was in England. It could be because someone told me that Victoria was more English then the English.
Eventhough it was our day off, we needed to get some supplies. We needed to laundry and buy groceries. I also got a new back wheel for only $50! The guys took time off from their current repairs to work on my bike. I appreciated it and bought them a six pack for their troubles.
I also decided to go with sandals for the rest of the trip. Putting your foot into a wet shoe is terrible and I never want to worry about that anymore. I spent some money on som quality sandals to get my feet happy. Now I'm happy.
Victoria is a nice city and I hope to come back.
