This is the view from the ferry as we leave Victoria, BC heading to Port Angeles early Friday night. The harbor activities are everywhere. There are bagpipes playing off in the distance, art activites are happening in front of the palace, float planes are landing in the harbor, water taxis are scurrying back and forth to the houseboats, commercial fishing vessals are bringing in the days catch, cruise ships are docked nearby. I pause and breath in the moment as I reflect on this magical city by the sea.
