Our fourth day in Vancouver but the first full day of the escorted tour. The only organised event being a tour of the city which as originally planned covered most of what we had visited for ourselves in previous days.
Unexpectedly the bus tour had to be diverted because of road closures for a community marathon, and a partial bridge closure for unknown reasons. As a consequence we saw different aspects of Vancouver from those experienced in our private touring.
Some glimpses;

Tomorrow morning we board the Rocky Mountaineer train headed for Banff but first stop will be Kamloops where the temperature today reached 38ºc. Is this really Canada?
Wide selection of cookies and pastries and fruit. So iot means summer is in North America not in Europe
ReplyDeleteThe locals say it has been unseasonably hot, Gosia.
DeleteWe passed your train today near Kamloops. We were in the white bus. I waved but not sure if you saw me.
ReplyDeleteOh, I did wave back, Andrew.
