Happy Hangover Day!

There is a theme of watching fireworks from the hotel deck this year. Last night decided we couldn’t see the fireworks from our room, so headed downstairs and out onto the deck where we could watch the fireworks – and yes, they were over the harbour. In keeping with the theme!
Headed for bed after the fireworks. Up too early again, but slowly shedding the jetlag. Had breakfast at the hotel, a very nice start to the day overlooking the harbour in the sunshine. Not really whale watching weather – bright sunshine and not a cloud in the sky (usually when we’re whale watching it’s raining and cold, or even horizontal snow in the dark!) – but we were off for the boat. Really nice trip and we were out for four hours. We saw lots of birds, including pidgeon guillamot, gulls, arctic tern, and a bald eagle. We also saw seals. And orcas and a humpback whale! Got to see the fluke several times. A really nice time out.
Once back we headed off to the bike hire place to check all was sorted for tomorrow’s ride. Then had a walk around the shopping area of Victoria. We’ll have dinner at the restaurant at the hotel and then rest up for our cycle ride tomorrow.
