A Visit to The Butchart Gardens

We had the opportunity to visit The Butchart Gardens near Victoria, B.C. during our trip to Vancouver Island.  If you've heard of it, visited or seen pictures of it, you'll know what an amazing place it is.  If you haven't yet, feast your eyes on the pictures below and put it on your list of places to visit!

We lucked out and visited on the most perfect, sunny September day during late afternoon/evening.  The light levels were fantastic and the garden was awesome.
