Victoria, Oct 12, 1 pm-midnight -suggestions?

[gzmtlock]

Hi!  We are unexpectedly in Victoria for a longer time tomorrow, due to canceling of Ketchikan and trying to beat a storm down the coast.  (So far, that's working!)  Port time in Victoria has been extended and will start at 1 pm.  We want to wander around on our own, be back on the ship by about 6 pm.  Would love any suggestions!

Since you haven't landed in Victoria yet, still time to give some advice.  Wandering around the Inner Harbour is a perfect way to spend the afternoon.  You can easily walk from the port at Ogden Point; stopping along the way at Fisherman's Wharf and if you didn't have lunch onboard, have some fish & chips at Barb's fish and chip shop.  You can hop onto one of the harbour ferries for a view of Victoria from the water.  Check out the Q Lounge in the Empress Hotel, enjoy a gin & tonic made with their own gin.  Or if you're a beer drinker, lots of pubs around.
