We had a great day in Victoria yesterday.  The weather was perfect, not too hot, nor too cold!  The streets were filled with holidaymakers and there was a festive atmosphere in the air.  We started with a tour of the Legislative Assembly, the home of our provincial government.  Our tour guide, Kimberley, did a fabulous job and I know you wouldn't think it from her photo, but she has excellent Japanese language skills.  The students were attentive and showed a lot of interest in what she was saying.

After our tour the students had lunch in the park at the BC Museum and then spent the afternoon exploring the many interesting shops in the city core.

The students had their photo taken with a very personable young man who was dressed up like Amor De Cosmos, who was the second Premier of British Columbia.  In order to have a photo taken the student had to speak to him and say one full English sentence.
