Sue treated us like royalty. She made us breakfast, and then walked us down to a path right outside of her apartment where we would walk downtown in less than 20 minutes. It was a gorgeous morning, and the walk was right along the harbor, so we watched all the boats come in and headed towards the fun.
We stopped to get coffee and walked around with plans to meet Sue at the Empress hotel in downtown Victoria. We had worried a lot about our questionable outfits for somewhere so fancy, but Sue assured us we were fine. We met her at 1:00 and were treated to the best meal we will probably have on this entire trip, complete with wine, awesome pasta, and desert :) We were stuffed and satisfied and did not want to leave Sue or Victoria.
After lunch, Sue said she was "loving and leaving us" so we went to the BC museum and enjoyed a nice IMAX movie before we had to say goodbye to Victoria and Kirk to head back to the states.
All in all, we absolutely loved Victoria. It was beautiful, and the people were super nice and accommodating.
We boarded our ferry to head back to Seattle. We had a night booked at the Green Tortoise Hostel, which is directly across from the Pike Place market. We made our way there, went out for a drink with a fellow roommate in our 8 bunk dorm, and passed out. Ready to explore Seattle in the morning!
