Woke this time by the loud, annoying, typically voice loving american women in the next carriage. Who obviously thought that the whole carriage would love to hear them! Irritating! Bearing in mind that it was 5.30am!

Finally.....last few hours of our trip.... we'd survived!!!

Still in Montana...we passed through Idaho and Washington state and arrived in Seattle ahead of time! Caought the bus to Vancouver which took 3.5hours. Passing immigration smoothly this time.... i like Canadians!

Oliver (family friends from back in my old village) and his girlfriend Haley picked us up in his cool truck and took us to Chilliwack to see the rest of the Crofton-Sleighs! Sooooo good to see everyone. It was like being back at home with Sue and Rach cooking typically english home comfort food...roasts, apple crumble, muffins! Su also did all our washing! Died and gone to heaven!!!!
