Sidney BC Waterfront 46/6 weeks

Photobucket
Sidney BC has one of the most picturesque waterfronts around.
For this outing we chose the Sidney waterfront. We had not visited since the addition of a couple of semi-high rises and wanted to see how the waterfront had changed. There is a footpath that hugs the waterfront and it is popular with residents as well as visitors. On this day we were able to stop into the art center at Tulista Park to view the coming Christmas fare. As with any art centre or gallery in this part of the world, we are constantly amazed at the level of creativity and talent of the native population.

Just the other side of the pier is the old pottery kiln site which exploded leaving the area littered with shards.

All in all this was a pretty gloomy and misty day. But it is nice to get out and remember that the world contains such breathtaking beauty that it needn't be enjoyed on sunny days only.
