After leaving Butchart Gardens we headed north, and stopped in at Duncan, the 'City of Totems'. However, my feet were way too sore after walking through Butchart Gardens twice, so we only visited the Station Gallery. Owen and Milo checked out the totem poles there..... ..and Milo climbed up on the caboose....

What an amazing place. Owen and Milo were so lucky to visit Duncan and see the totems and the rolling stock.

Duncan has many totem poles throughout the town, and we've taken the Walking Tour' several times in the past, but I just wasn't up to it that day. Plus it was late in the day, and the lighting wasn't very good.

If you are interested, I have an album of photos from when we went out west five years ago, also in fall, and we visited many of the same places. It was WAY better weather, so the scenery pictures are far superior. I did take along my Ryung - it was the very first trip with a doll along - but I didn't post her photos in that album through the other pictures. In fact, it was the doll photos from that trip that inspired me to start my Antique Lilac website.

Yes, there's some fabulous photos in that album., and I'm sure you'll recognize many of the places we visited. It certainly makes a HUGE difference if you have nice weather. We had a lot of bad weather this time, so the mountains were almost a total write-off.
