After going to many banks, to set up a bank account (not so easy on a visitors visa), arrived in an Irish pub to watch the semi finals. Germany - France.

Fairview, Vancouver

Kitsilano Beach, Vancouver

The advantages of staying out late, is you get over your jetlag, but now replaced by a hangover. Going to the beach must cure it.
Latin Festival, Vancouver
9. heinäkuuta 2016, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
When walking downtown, noticed that there was a small festival going on. It is free, so should check it. Funny thing here, they are really strict with alcohol. You could buy beer at the festival, butLue lisää

14. heinäkuuta 2016, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
A chinese garden in the middle of Chinatown. Indeed a nice garden, but the paying part is not that much more impressing then the free part. (I paid first...)

I bought a Van! The trip can begin!!!
Richmond
18. heinäkuuta 2016, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C
Broke my phone this morning. Went all the way to Richmond to look for another phone. They do not sell decent unblocked phones in Canada. I only could find one in a Chinese mall here. Paid a lot...

24. heinäkuuta 2016, Kanada ⋅ 🌙 16 °C
After driving around both Tofino and Ucluelet to find a nice parking spot for the night, decided to just go to a camping. Didn't expect it to be that expensive (45$ for a night). But had a good nightLue lisää
Wild Pacific Trail, Ucluelet
25. heinäkuuta 2016, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
In the morning it is always very foggy here, so didn't see that much during the small hike. But did understand the need of the big lighthouse with his awful sound.

25. heinäkuuta 2016, Kanada ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
I saw a whale today! A humpback whale who was just hunting for some fish. It was really amazing to see, how he jumped out of the water, how he splashed its tail. And because of his hunting, there wereLue lisää

Victoria

Spending the night at a WalMart just outside Victoria. No WiFi this time :(
