A half day out to the Pacific in search of whales. We managed to catch a family of Orcas (my precious) and a humpback before heading back to port for food.

We saw whales here

Bonjour from Victoria, a small semi busy city, with lots of noise, lots of smells and lots of “wackybacky!”. We got 2 days here to explore and I think we done most of it already.

Mrs Fogg as ever did her usual sterling research to find some fine dining, raw oysters at a small bar and then a small but friendly Chinese restaurant for a taste of Yunan, buried deep in the heart of China Town (well it’s actually just one street).

Today more walking miles around and more food past the plethora of Irish bars.

Up and out to the ferry via “downtown” Tsawwassen.

Catching a boat from HERE

A relatively smooth flight from Gatport Airwick to Vancouver and unsurprisingly a clean and tidy airport without graffiti, broken toilets or rubbish on the floors.

On then to our first stop just 24km from the airport at the Tsawwassen Inn, which was a breeze in the uber growly Nissan Murano. Off to the gym and then for food.

We stayed HERE

Here we go, Vancouver Road Trip with bears, Grrrr.

Last night sat in the Hilton at a Japanese Steak House where the service was sooooooooo slow they ended up comping the second bottle of sake and service charge and some of the food. It only took 3 hours for the food to arrive.

Our lovely little solar water fountain has been buried in flowers and bees all summer, so a little Garden DIY sees the solar ball elevated and looking pretty cool day and night.

So for Mrs Foggs Birthday I arranged a surprise of a weekend at Rudding Park, complete with a suite, sauna access all weekend, gym, 9 course tasting menu, massage, swimming pool and the ultimate 4 metre wide, Dolby Atmos, 14 seat cinema all to ourselves so she could watch her fave movie Highlander on the big screen (having never seen it at the cineama).

It was AWESOME

A really relaxing few days (even with Mrs Fogg making us walk over 100,000 steps), of awesome sights and amazing food on the river cruise for 3 hours and then last night at Mlynec in central Prague, with a 5 course menu and wine tasting, finished off with dry ice deserts

Another day wombling round the city, across a bridge or 2, visiting dignitaries, peeing statues, food, drink, castles and HOT sunshine
