    We decided to make the most of the last day of our trip. First thing up was a full North American breakfast, which we attempted to counter by a brief walk up to Bridal Veil Falls.

    Following that we pointed the car in the direction of Vancouver, but we tried to avoid the Trans Canada highway by taking the scenic route via Cultus Lake, then along "0 Avenue" where if you step off the road you're straight into the United States again.

    The weather definitely didn't match the forecast, so we stopped off at the seaside town of White Rock, and enjoyed some fish and chips.

All up we travelled 4440km in Rudolph, our little red Tesla.
