Hi Carol:
Here is a website that may help you with Saltspring
Island. www.saltspringstudiotour.com/seasons/htm

In Victoria, visit Chosin Pottery of course, it is is
outside Victoria about 3/4 hr. The Art Gallery of
Victoria usually has some good pottery in its gift
shop. There is a gallery in Oak Bay (a suburb) that
has really good pottery too. Victoria is enchanting,
lots to see and do. If you like chocolate, go to
Rogers chocolates on Government Street, enjoy the
heritage shop, buy the best chocolate outside of
Belgium. My Grandfather, who unfortunately I never
knew, did the cabinet work in this shop, also the
interiors of EA Morris Tobacco across the street. I
like the chocolate store better!

Enjoy your visit.

June
