December 2009 - Sky 2

December 16, 2009

And on an otherwise lackluster day we had this spectacular rainbow.

There were some interesting skies in December, like this near sunset.

December 2009 - A walk on an icy morning

December 10, 2009

It always surprises me to see ice in the Inner Harbour.

The little harbour ferries, decorated for Christmas, look frozen in place.

The ice may not have been thick enough for me to walk on, but it was for some.

Downtown on Government Street, the chalk artist had been at work.

The Rose Carousel

I've got some catching up to do! The next few posts will be of photos from December.

December 1, 2009

The Rose Carousel opened at Butchart Gardens. Rides are $2 but on opening night they were free! I went twice: once on a horse (I wanted a brown one but got white), and once with Glenn on one of the sled-like chariots.

There are 30 animals carved from basswood by a company in California. The carousel moves fairly fast! And the thing I liked was that all the animals go up and down as they're going around. So I finally got my 'proper' merry-go-round ride.
