Last Christmas Eve, Louise and I spent a little time taking pictures around the
BC Legislature buildings on Victoria's Inner Harbour. Known locally as The Ledge, the Baroque-styled building's construction was completed in 1898 and designed by local architect Francis Rattenbury, who designed many of the buildings and structures in the downtown area. His career suffered a major setback in 1935 when he was murdered by his second wife's lover. But I digress.
The Ledge is normally lit up at night by the white lights, but for the holiday season, more traditional colours are added to the display.
The tree in front has lights hung on it, and the fountain is lit by red and green spotlights.
The Ledge also has one little known ability...it can jump into hyperspace!
