Somehow I stumbled across a link that shows a Canadian Pacific steamer journeying from Vancouver to Victoria and eventually Seattle.
The 1920s home movie includes shots of The Empress Hotel and the BC Parliament Buildings.
It also includes exteriors of Government House in the tony Rockland area of Victoria.
If you look closely, you'll see a large, white house pictured next door.
That's Fairholme Manor, an 1890's Italianate mansion restored by owners Sylvia and Ross Main that's pictured here.
Today it's an award-winning inn known for its lovely suites and fabulous breakfasts.
And yummy new cookbook!
( Full Disclosure : I edited the cookbook :-)
