    Was hoping when you said an Irish ☘️ Pub it would be the Sticky Wicket. I was there about 10-15 years ago and it was pretty nice. Did you by any chance notice if it is still around?

    It was 1982 when I was in Victoria, as a 12yo with my now deceased parents. We came over for four weeks from the UK to visit family in Burnaby Vancouver. Lovely memories, especially of stood in front of The Empress and the Parliament building with my parents. I'm almost 54 now and was so nice to see places where we once stood. 🙂

    A brand new year, a brand new Traveling Robert video...yay! At 4:15, that might be a "timber raft" of logs being transported to a mill. My family went on vacation to Victoria back in the 70s and took the Inside Passage cruise to Prince Rupert. My main memory of the trip was rain, rain, and more rain -- so it's nice to see what Victoria looks like in the sunshine 🙂. The "provincial Christmas tree" is a bit of an oddity to me, I've never seen a sequoia with branches that low to the ground.
    Looking forward to riding along with you in 2024...happy trails!

    Your music, your photography, your editing skills, and now your data intake of our beautiful city of Victoria, I must say, we have seen it all. We stayed in Victoria for 3 weeks and just explored. For a city, it to me is one of the nicest. Of course biased as all get out. I love the quiet of small town living, lake viewings, birdwatching, tree hugging, flower snapping, Johnathon Livingston Seagull bird eyeview of British Columbia Canada. My homeland I love with all my heart. Thank you Robert and your blessed family.

    The 'different colored water' must have been a river mixing with sea water. It looks like in the Gulf of Mexico where the Mississippi river mixes with the salt water. It is pretty cool how they don't mix for a long ways. We went on a fishing trip to Venice, LA a few years ago. You should charter a fishing trip from Venice one day.

    Thanks for the great tour of Victoria. As much as I hate to admit this and as a lifelong BC resident I have only been to Victoria one time. That trip was for my brother’s hockey trip and I didn’t see anything. The cost of taking a vehicle from Vancouver to Victoria is extremely expensive! I will have to go across as a foot passenger one day soon! Thanks for showing me all the good places to visit in Victoria for when I do decide to visit. I also really enjoyed your trip leaving Vancouver going to Seattle, a trip I take at least a couple of times a month! I do have one major pet peeve with today’s episode. At the ending you shut off the camera literally a couple of seconds too early! I have seen this view before but at the light of the end of the end of the tunnel is one of the most iconic views in the whole Seattle area, coming out of the tunnel out onto the floating bridge over Lake Washington. It would have been really good for the people who aren’t familiar with the area that they could have seen that view. Oh well still a great episode!
