What a trip! It’s been lovely to do another road trip although it’s been a short one with only 663 miles covered since many of the accommodations only offer a minimum 2 night stay and distances between stuff is pretty huge if you want to do a big circuit.

Visiting Vancouver Island was the highlight for me, esp Port Renfrew and Tofino. I love the views of the Pacific Ocean and the Whale watching tour. Squamish had something about it that we really liked but Whistler was disappointing and could just as well have been located at Downtown Disney. High price tourist shops in a twee (and big) pedestrianised area.

We cycled an impressive 18 miles around Stanley Park -THE best fun and better than doing the usual big city shops, and finally we did two big cable cars, one up the Sky Goldola and one up Grouse Mountain. Miles of walking, a stack of yummy waffles for breakfast most mornings and oodles of seafood.

They are not kidding when they say nature on a grand scale, but sadly (or could be positive) the only bears we saw were in an enclosure.

Time to give our waistlines time to rest now and back to that there Blighty and back to work. Boo.

Need to plan the next trip now

Did we mention how EXPENSIVE Canada is!!! Food is very expensive and access to attractions steep, but all in all fab fab fab
