We have arrived and battling to stay awake now! It's 8 hours behind so our bodies think it's midnight but in reality it's only 4pm!

Phew - glad to be back at our place! We have walked nearly 10 miles!! Met up with my brother, sister in law and nephews. We went to to Grenville market and then walked along by the river. Late lunch with the much needed beer! Then onto Canada Place to watch more boats and sea planes.Read more

It rained last night so really cleared the air! No smoke from the wild fires in Vancouver anymore.
Cycled around Stanley Park - about 10 Kms. Beautiful ride around the sea wall and then into the forest. From there we cycled along the river to Gastown - very touristy!Read more

What a fantastic day. Picked up by Robert at 7am - stunning views on way down to Squamish for White Water Rafting experience.
There were 16 in our group plus Rob and Ted in their kayaks. All suited and booted in rubber including very fetching booties with life jackets and helmets to put in when there.
Very bumpy journey in an old yellow school bus!
Very scary health and safety talk ending with what to do if capsized! There were 8 in each raft - ours included Michael, Martin, Tracey and Chris plus Ted's family. Our helmsman was Will - he did most of the work!
We went down 20 kms of river in total - several sections of rapids. Stunning scenery all the way down with mountains in the background.
Some of us went for a swim - mine helped by my brother pushing me in! The water was freezing but refreshing.
Best experience so farRead more
Traveler Looks brilliant and fun 😀😀
