Welcome to my Alma Mater!!
Hare now, hare gone!! University is filled with these blackish/brownish/goldenish rabbits. The joke is that during summer there are more rabbits than students at UVic. It's not uncommon to see girls and boys feeding them baby carrots during their lunch hours.
A totem pole!! These are engraved by native people and usually they indicate that they used to live in this area, although these are now given as a symbolic gesture too. I love this particular totem pole surrounded by trees which may be lucky to have not been engraved. University has around 4-5 of these spread all around.
University fountain. This is just outside the library where you can see brilliant minds thinking about ways to solve world problems. Although, sometimes you can see couples making out too (reminds me of good 'ol days of Delhi University...lol)
University bus-stand and book store. You can see me here every evening at 5ish waiting for my 26, which is the double-decker one. We have also got these new hybrid ones and once I was chatting with the driver of these hybrids and he was telling me all about them when I told him that in Delhi all the buses run on CNG. He was pleasantly surprised and I felt suprisingly pleased...
Coming up next: A visit to Cadboro Bay Village
aji wah aaj hum first :P
