Above is Clover Point, the always windy venue for the Victoria International Kite Festival. I took the photo last evening when they were just setting up for the festival which will be very active today. However, there were a few kites flying, the one below being the most interesting. I plan to check out the festival in more detail later today since I am always amazed at how the pros can make those flimsy things dance and swoop so gracefully..

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.
