One by one we gathered at the Port Angeles at the Coho Ferry dock for the 8:20 AM departure to Victoria, B. C. We had a beautiful day for the crossing and walks. We received a very warm welcome and a lovely Saanach pin from the Garden City Wanderers after clearing Customs. Following photo ops, we traveled to the Saanach area/Glendale Trails to gather maps, register and begin our walks.The 10 Km option followed a beautiful trail along wooded paths, through wildlife reserves and offered colorful views of Glendale Gardens. Following a well marked route, perhaps the names best describe the setting: Beaver Lake Road; Quale Road; Glendale Fardens' Preferred Equestrian Route; Birder's Loop; and Nature Sanctuary.
Completing our walks, we met at a lovely picnic area for a really delicious lunch. Two of our members chose to do the afternoon walk around the lake. The remainder of our group, about fifteen of us, elected to return to the downtown Victoria area.
We never "dreamed" we would have such a wonderful day!
