a spoiler from last fall , this is the picture I was looking for ~


--- Quote --- Hey guys! I took this picture while I was on vacation in Victoria just recently. This was taken outside between the Underwater Sea Garden and the Royal Wax Museum. I asked the cashier of the sea garden whether it was an Amazing Race marker and she said it wasn't. Claimed it was some corporate race.

Am not completely sure, but the building in the left background may be The Empress Hotel (I think it's the name).  Victoria is beautiful and everyone says when you go, you must go there for High Tea.  We didn't get our reservation in soon enough so had to go somplace else.

Here is a picture of The Empress Hotel from the front:



Another place on Victoria is Buschard Gardens.  Again, VERY beautiful with many types of gardens....rose garden, Italian, Japanese, etc. 

If they are going to Victoria, I wonder if they will have to go to one of these places and do something there.  Will be interesting to see.

My bad, I looked back at the list of cities that they will be in and this one isn't there.  That plus puddin saying it was a spoiler from last fall.  DOH :groan: :lol:  :umn:

Puddin, you are so good.  I live in Victoria BC (Canada) and that picture you have is the city I live in.  Well I can guarantee there is no corporate challenge going on at this time that I am aware of. We definitely hold a corporate challenge in our city in the summer to early fall (usually sporting events such as rowing, softball, etc.).  When was this picture taken or posted?  My clue box did look like the one in the picture.  As for the picture, the cluebox is sitting on the causeway in our inner harbour--it is the gathering place for all the tourists as we have musicians (some good and some bad), jugglers, artists entertaining all the tourist each and every night.  Our symphony also puts on one free show during our long weekend in August every year -- it is quite the place to be.  The hotel shown in the left background of the picture is the Ocean Pointe Resort--it is on the other side of the harbour if you were to enter from the water.  It is a huge hotel and very nice.  So come visit Victoria and I will show you where the fake Amazing Race clue box stood that got me all excited. :bliss: :bliss: :bliss: :bliss:

Jeffrey Scott:
Next time, just take the box home with you. ;)
