The Breakwater, Victoria BC


One of the places I wanted to see. Is it really a long stretch of “pier” with a small lighthouse at the end? Kinda, but it is more than that!

There are stones on one side you can walk along. Additionally, there are First Nation murals along the walls.

Victoria BC was having gorgeous summer weather when we arrived and it was cool to just take a walk along for a bit.

If you are lucky, you will see a cruise ship dock and wave to the people onboard!

Toy Traders in Langley BC


I heard about Toy Traders from my friend Victor W. He took pictures when he visited and since I had some time on my hands, I decided to go check it out.

Got my wife and kids, and my nephew to go check it out.

Now I’ve seen Japanese toy stores similar to this display wise.. but the Toy Traders is unique!

As a toy person, it was awesome. As a nostalgic toy person, it was awesome. As someone into “toy art” freaking blown away!!!

Above and on all sides of the store were some toy art.. like epic battle scenes… It was pretty intense.

I’ll let the pictures don the talking.
