Circumnavigating Vancouver Island 2024

Back in 2003, we circumnavigated Vancouver Island, capturing wonderful memories. Now in 2024 we hope to re-visit this large island, and create some new memories!

Butchart Gardens in Sidney!

10 August 2022 | Todd Inlet, BC, Canada

We motored and sailed from Nanaimo through Dodd Narrows and south to Sidney where we are presently anchored in Todd Inlet next to Butchart Gardens. Tomorrow, Thursday August 11, we will enjoy visiting Butchart Gardens once again. The Gardens are mature, but they are
constantly maintaining, refreshing, and upgrading their offerings. The last time we visited we heard they had 75 gardeners on staff. That sounds way low of a figure. Maybe they have 750 :) Hope to share some photos!
