Rainy vancouver - Blogabond

We made it back to Vancouver! After we left Golden, we drove east via Revelstoke, Kelowna and Hope. It was strange to approach the metropolitan civilisation and at first we were confused about all the traffic on the road, thinking 'something must have happened', before we realized we had just hit rush traffic. We simply weren't used to seeing so many cars at once after six weeks in very rural areas!

The three days in Vancouver were spent taking care of som admin stuff, re-packing the car and meeting up with a couple of friends. It was a little strange to back in your 'hometown' (at least for Victoria who have lived in Vancouver for eight and a half years) and not have a permanent address in the city. However, both of us felt a little clastrophobic with so many people in such a small space.

When we checked out from our hotel after three days it felt good and we are now ready to embark on the journey east. We will be maintaining the blog for the next portion of this trip, so come back soon to see what we are up to!
