Timing was the key today and all worked well. We were mostly packed when I left to meet with the guys @ Cascadia. Scott and Rod kind enough to catch up for a quick lunch and some straight no bulls*** talk today. Good times and appreciated. Got back to hotel in time to change and check out before deadline. Taxi van was booked and we hit the airport. Westjet service to Montreal today. Airport check in without issue - all suitcase weights ok. We had an hour and ...

We got up and away mid morning with an apparent 'need' to find a local Walmart here. Transport plan was agreed, we had day ticket in hand and walking to hit the Skytrain. A good system and we took the long version via a lot of stops to get where we were going. Got a good view of some outer suburbs and surrounds. Off the train and a quick walk and we found the store. We have seen better but got what we needed. We had plans today that would require solid shoes for...

Jumped off the bus down near Stanley Park and went walking. The sun was shining, blue skies and ...

Was a grey morning and threatening to rain but we are all dressed for it. Made our entry into Capilano and started the fun. The surroundings are beautiful with the trees and river below. The bridge itself is brilliant - nice and wide with only a little rocking movement. TB was not s...

Well wasn't that a s*** of a way to start a day - aaaagghhh!!! Alarm was on but phone volume turned down. Up 15 mins later than required, girls hate mornings, TB and EB just cant gel today and a stupid rush to the train. We must get another suitcase to share around some of this crap we are carrying. Anyhow.... We are on the 510 service to Vancouver, sliding by the waters edge just north of Seattle now. Nice train - large seats and leg room aplenty. We settle i...
