It always amazed me how far ahead the west coast spring is to here. I remember coming here to visit my parents in April and being shocked at the still dead-looking trees and lack of flowers, while everything was blooming like crazy in CA and WA.
Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities. Click the photos to see them larger!

Pretty, nice macro!
Lovely!
here everything is still cold and snow covered, though they're blowing up the ice on the Rideau River...
