Oak Bay Tea Party

In a society where many of the fun things we used to do when we were kids are now off limits for children as too dangerous, it's nice to see that midway rides still offer some extreme experiences that feel dangerous even if they aren't. The kids above are enjoying one of my former favorites, the Tilt-A-Whirl, on the midway at the annual Oak Bay Tea Party, last weekend.

As well as photography I like to paint and the sky is a constant source of inspiration to me. So often what is going on above our heads and in plain sight is a work of art beyond anything I'm capable of with a paintbrush. - Fern

Thetis Lake Park

This is one of Victoria's gems, I never tire of this park. Only 15 minutes from Victoria and you're in the woods. We've had so much rain that the colors are glowing. - Fern

Copycat

It's always fun to watch the Harbour Seals at Fisherman's Wharf greeting the tourists and sharing some sashimi. However, I was surprised to see this year that another harbour resident has learned about the free fish - that's a River Otter popping up there to see what the tourists have to offer.
