This was going to be our final CME conference prior to retirement. We chose a three day conference in Victoria,BC at the Empress Hotel on a topic that we hope, will help us in our future medical missions in developing countries. This conference was on infectious diseases for tprimary care doctors. Getting away from the steamy summer weather in south Louisian to the gorgious Victoria with the temperatures around upper sixties was a welcome change. Our youngest daughter Michelle was able to accompany us during this trip. Conference schedule gave us ample time every afternoon to roam around the island and enjoy the sight and sounds of this beautiful part of British Columbia.
The Empress Hotel is so elegant and beautiful. The hotel is facing the ocean and is surrounded by perfectly manicured lawns and gardens all around. We were able to stroll through and enjoy the beauty to the fullest.
