Jaywalker!

Here's another interesting Chinatown fact I learned on the Chinatown walking tour I mentioned yesterday. This young man crossing the street in the middle of the block is NOT going to get busted for jaywalking. In Chinatown, by virtue of a special city bylaw, jaywalking is legal. It's a nice little recognition that our Chinatown is a special place with its own culture.

    That's great! I love the Gates of Harmonious Interest. They are beautiful.

    You mean they actually do bust people for jaywalking in Victoria?
