We finally got into Canada after waiting in line and being quizzed (I am pretty sure they though we wanted to get jobs in Canada). We do have a lot in the car and are currently unemployed... so I can see where the assumption came from. After we got in we hung out at Waves Coffee house to use the internet for free. My biggest problem was that in Canada I did not have cell service, so we spent the entire Canadian trip sans cell phones.
AUGUST 3rd - B.C. Day
We somehow arrived on the only summer holiday in British Columbia (B.C. Day)! We went to buy transit tickets its so nice to n
ot have to drive all over city. They have a great system in Vancouver. We got to the Sky Train not really having a plan and ended up going to Science World. It was a really fun Science Museum that was very interactive. Then we took the Sea Bus to North Vancouver to hang out at the wharf. The city was pretty full of people because it was a "holiday" which was kind of fun, but a little crowded. Overall, it was a fun day with lots of random adventures.
AUGUST 4th - Last day in VancouverWe woke up and went to a burrito place called Steamrollers. It was good, but no Freebirds... I miss Freebirds! (one of the few things I miss about College Station)
We went to the Vancouver Art Gallery. They had a special exhibit on Dutch Art that was nice, but their Emily Carr and Jack Shadbolt collection was my favorite.
We walked around downtown before heading back into the U.S. to stay one more night in Seattle. My friend Rae and her boyfriend went with us to get food at Duke's Chowder House.
