We took a little side trip to Sydney BC

Sydney is a nartsy fartsy town with lots of little boutiques and art galleries,and on all four corners of the main street there is a national grocer.Only a 20 minute drive from Victoria it is a quiet little town that reminds me of many small towns in Ontario


Obviously a tourist spot it is also a small haven for retirees who want every necessity of life in a small village, The only thing I did not see was a hospital but I suppose greater Victoria would service them.
