I got to walk where Tom walked…
So I haven’t gotten around to blogging about my entire trip to Victoria yet and I hope I do, cuz I had so much fun. It was a whirlwind but I had an absolute blasty blast!
BUT I must say I DID go to Hatley castle where the exterior of Lex Luthor’s castle is shot…I was soooo excited about this. I walked around the castle, the gorgeous castle gardens and the lawns. I recognized spots where Smallville was filmed outside and I got all giddy??? Why? Cuz Tom Welling would have walked around here… I took lots of pics! I wish so badly they were filming here the day I was there, but I know they have a sound stage in Vancouver where all the interior stuff is shot. They probably rarely come out to Hatley castle but nonetheless, I was there.
We came here twice. Once, later Saturday afternoon, the castle was closed but the gardens were open so we took a stroll. Then again on Sunday afternoon right before our planes took off.
The castle is very impressive and very beautiful. The carvings and woodwork is phenomenal! The gardens were amazing! Ryan and I had the gardens all to ourselves because we were there later in the evening when the castle was closed. Hatley castle is about 30 min. from Victoria, so not a lot of tourists were around. It was very romantic just to walk around the gardens. I just love spending time with Ryan. After 10 years, I still love to be around him and be with him…
Hmmm… I wondered if Tom took Jamie out for a stroll in the gardens. They are very lovely…. the gardens and Tom of course!
I’ll post pics later once I DL them onto my computer.
