SPEECHLESS SUNDAY (SATURDAY) ON THE GORGE WATERWAY IN VICTORIA.

Today while walking along the Gorge water way, I caught two Kayakers enjoying Perfect Saturday Paddling along the Gorge.

SPEECHLESS SUNDAY ON THE GORGE WATERWAY IN VICTORIA

If you are looking for a home near the Gorge waterway you have come to the right place, I created a live Map of the locations of homes for sale in the Gorge Tillicum Neighbourhood. Save this map as new listings will automactically be added to the map.

For the rest of my walk with my dog I could not get a song out of my head after seeing those two people on the Gorge Waterway ...Goes something like this "Cruising Down The River on a Sunday Afternoon"..except theses two where paddling their Kayacks on a Saturday afternoon.

The Gorge Waterway is just one on the many benefits of living in the Gorge Tillicum Neighbourhood in the Municipality of Sannich in Victoria, BC.

Hi Sandy Padula and Norm Padula, JD, GRI . The Gorge Tillicum neighbourhood is an older established area of Victoria, I was rised in this area as a young boy. The Gorge Rd was the old Island Highway(Victoria heading north up island).

Great area to live & walk in, very handy to everything by car or public transportation.

Cheers, thanks for dropping by my Speechless Sunday Post

Fred, before I left I bought a Canadian lottery ticket in hopes of winning so I could buy a condo on the water!   Did not win......

I could handle finding myself in one of those kayaks.  No problem!  What a tranquilizing scene!

Hi Kathy Streib Kayaking is very popular on the Gorge waterway along with paddling in a Canoe. The George Tillicum neighbour is a very popular place to live.
