Victoria - We are safely in Canada


TO START FROM THE BACKGROUND OF OUR TRIP, click here..... YOU'RE DOING WHAT?

Day 1 was a piece of cake!  After the 90 minute ferry ride we went through customs and had all 14 of our apples confiscated (lightened our load!!) Next, we had some trouble finding the trail we were starting on, but once we found it We were off!
Mostly flat, 8.5 miles to a farm where we stayed.  Victoria has an amazing amount of bike routes, and they are busy.  Lots of people commute on bikes here. 
Two girls live on the farm, which was perfect for our girls, a farm with animals and kids to play with!  The girls helped with chores, Jill kept asking for more chores!!   Then to top off the great day, Terry our host, served us all homemade strawberry ice cream.
Tomorrow we are headed to Shawnigan Lake.  15 mile ride, shouldn't be too bad.
(Except, I already know we end up riding 27 miles.....I'll save the story for next time!)
