Travel: Victoria, BC

 

 

After losing Charlie just over a week ago, Kevin and I needed some time away for a bit of a break from our thoughts.

We decided to take the ferry trip to Victoria, BC and make a long weekend of it. We hadn't been back since 2003, and boy, has the city changed!

It still has its old-town charm but with a much younger character than we remembered! Block after block of local coffee roasters, craft beer microbreweries and amazing new restaurants, the city has become a definite food haven. And you can't help but get lost in some of those views.

This trip was exactly what we needed.

Love: Charlie

We lost our cat Charlie this past Friday due to complications with his FIV. He was almost 10 years old. 

He was the perfect, most handsome cat. With the perfect name. He was our favourite friend, my biggest confidante. And he was most definitely family. 

Life without him seems so empty. He was my work companion everyday for the last 3 years. Not having him by my side, purring away...I feel lost and extremely sad.

A friend just shared this with me...

"Paw prints stay on your heart forever."

Her father comforted her with this when she lost her dog, Blue. And its very comforting to us now. 

Stay warm in that sunbeam of yours, Charlie. We miss and love you.
