Let the 'miles' roll...
Every good things must come to an end. This is the end of my Victorian era. Victoria, the city where I have spend more time than any other city in the world, the city which is regarded as the most beautiful in North America, the city that made me the person I am today, the city where I started blogging and made friends for life or the city of newly weds or nearly deads (as the brochures for the city says). This city has given me too much to be described in words. Its time to move on but Victoria will remain in my heart forever. I will end my last blog from this city with some of my most memorable memories...
This is where Canada starts...
And this is how you reach the beautiful Vancouver Islands. Ironically, Vancouver is not part of Vancouver Islands, which really confused me the first time I came here.
The Parliament Building of Victoria, one of the most beautiful buildings that define the city.
The Empress, this is where the Queen of England stays whenever she visits Victoria. Seeing her convoy past by me was one of the highlights of my stay.
One of the most beautiful setting for the weekly Sunday market in summer. I have spend almost my every Sunday of numerous summers in these bylanes...
My favorite pub, The Irish Pub, right besides the Sunday market...err....this was not the only reason for me visiting the market every Sunday :P
And then there were the beautiful girls of Victoria in the market...err...this was also not the second to only reason for me going to the market :P
This year the theme of the city is my favorite flowers, tulips, with purple being my favourite ones among all...
The Sikh Temple of Victoria, the only place where I would feel at-home and at-peace...
Picture perfect sunset at the "Breakwater". Ah, I will miss you Victoria (and by that I mean the city as well **wink**)

I used to bike to this beautiful "Swan lake" and feed the ducks, when I first moved to the city...
The Engineering Buildings of University of Victoria, where I spend last 5 years of my life working on my second degree which will define my future life...
One of my favourite shot taken from sixth floor of the Engineering building.

Note: I will be away for a while, till I settle down in a new city, new job, new life, but you all will see me around in your spaces with my comments on anything and everything. So long...
