We took the ferry over one more time to Vancouver Island with Brian and Gill and did a bit more sightseeing.
We went whale watching again, to see the Orcas, this time in a Zodiac - which is like a rubber speed boat thingi. That way you can get really close to the action without bothering the whales. We saw a MASSIVE Orca, it was a male and it's fin was about 1.5 metres high. Incredible. We were all suited up in our thermal suits, toques (beanies), gloves the whole shebang and it was FREEZING. We finally made it to the Butchart Gardens this visit, which I'll attach some pics.
