It’s a beautiful day…Day 3 in Canada

Day three in Canada was the busiest of them all. As you can tell from some of the pictures below, the weather was just as beautiful as it was the first two days. Since it was an evening wedding, we had quite a bit of time in the morning and early afternoon to continue our exploration of Victoria. We decided to visit the Royal British Columbia Museum. I have to admit, I was hesitant at first. It was a little on the pricey side, but it’s totally worth it. The museum was incredibly well done and contained so many things that were important to the pacific northwest. Unfortunately not many of my pictures do it justice. If you’re ever in the area, I highly recommend stopping by.

A very cool pic in the totem pole room. I don’t know if you can tell from the pic, but they were super tall. The room was huge.

Breakfast was at a cute wholefoods bakery called Casacadia. They also prided themselves on using lots of locally grown, organic ingredients. Love it

Where we sat during breakfast

Quiche with mushrooms, peppers, and onions. So tasty…

Lunch was at a cafe towards the Chinatown area called the Red Dragon Bistro

Dragon figurines and the Canadian flag

I had the Chicken Brushchetta panini for lunch. It had roasted chicken breast (with Italian herbs), Roma tomato bruschetta, Edam cheese and Djon cheese. I can’t tell you how tasty it was. Defintely one of my favorite meals of the trip.
