Bren and Kate's travels!
Hello!
We spent just under a week in San Francisco and loved it. It is a really pretty city with some lovely houses. On the first night we stayed at a hostel just by union square but the hostel was pretty crap so we moved out a bit and got a much nicer place for less money! We did a lot of sightseeing around the city and walked up a lot of hills! We went on the tram to nob hill which is what they always show on the tv so that was pretty cool. We also walked over the Golden Gate bridge (and back!). It is surprising how big the bridge actually is. The best part though was going over to Alcatraz. We got a ferry over and spent 3 hours walking around it seeing cells that belonged to Al Capone for example. When we came back to the main island on the ferry there where loads of seals right there in front of us which was pretty cool.
On Thurs we flew from San Francisco up to Vancouver and spent 4 days staying at the uni. We haven't seen much of Vancouver yet but we are going back so will do more sight seeing then. We are at Vancouver Island at the mo, staying in Victoria. Victoria is really beautiful and today we took a mini ferry over to Fishermans Wharf and walked back via a coastal walk which was nice. We are hopefully going whale watching tomorrow so hopefully we will have better luck that the dolphins!
Hope evryone is good,
Take Care xxxx
