Last February, we decided to visit Victoria in February to enjoy this beautiful city and area in the off-season; hoping to enjoy early flowers and blossoms. The only problem was that it was cold and very snowy! So we tried again this year. Although it was on the cool side, we did not have snow and we had very little rain. The area did not disappoint, and the plum/ cherry blossoms were out along with many early flowers. We had nice views of the Olympic Mountains and even managed a side trip to Port Renfrew. We were also fortunate to see many different species of birds.
