At the dock, early-morning fog shrouded the waterfront, but soon after traveling a couple blocks into the city, the fog stopped. En route to Butchart Gardens we learned about Victoria and the history of its famous gardens. Our early arrival at Butchart Gardens was perfect because there were only a few people on the paths and the sun was shining brightly. The flowers were still in beautiful color. Morning lighting filtering through the morning mist on to the Sunken Garden was particularly picturesque and downright lovely.
