Fisherman's Warf - Victoria

On our last afternoon in Victoria we went for a walk, to the left of our hotel as we hadn't headed that way yet.
As we were walking down the sea-wall, 4 or 5 of these water planes landed right beside us! 
Thrilling as it was, Melissa was running around covering her ears...
We ended up walking to the Fisherman's Warf where there were over a dozen merchants based out of little shops that were floating along the boardwalk...
We met a local celebrity/seal who knew very well what she wanted. She lingered near the boardwalk waiting for someone to feed her fish...
She was certainly well fed... the picture doesn't do her size justice!
Melissa looking into her big eyes...
Who could resist :)
A "street" of floating houses...
Melissa & I needed some fuel for the walk back to our hotel, so we snacked on some ice cream. Melissa's ice cream was Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and I had the Moose Tracks (which was vanilla ice cream & peanut butter cups & nuts... yum!)

That underwater seal picture is a bit freaky. I didn't see the face at first, and then when I did I kind of jumped!
