While on a weekend getaway to see Elton John in concert in Victoria, British Columbia, the cameraman and his wife made a stop at Fishermans Wharf in downtown Victoria.
Victoria, capital of British Columbia, sits on the craggy southern end of Vancouver Island. With abundant parkland, it’s known for outdoor activities. The city's British colonial past shows in its Victorian architecture, including stately Craigdarroch Castle mansion. Butchart Gardens, with 55 acres of vivid floral displays, plus statuary, water features and a carousel, is one of many formal gardens in the city.
Just around the corner from Victoria's Inner Harbour, Fisherman's Wharf is a hidden treasure waiting to be discovered. This unique marine destination offers food kiosks, unique shops and eco-tour adventures in the heart of the working harbour. Wander down the docks with your lunch, buy seafood fresh off the boat, see moored pleasure vessels and float homes, and watch as fishing vessels unload their wares.
While enjoying a great fish and chips meal, Brent could hear some commotion a short distance away on the docks so he wandered over and was quite entertained by what he saw.
This young woman and her friend were visiting fishermans wharf and found out they could feed the local harbour seals and sea otters. After purchasing some herring they both proceeded to take a turn at feeding, which seemed more scary for the girl than the seal. It was a lot of fun watching this and made for some great laughs. Brent the cameraman and his wife enjoyed this as it now has been banned to feed the seals and otters in the harbour.
