Trip

I figure its about time I put up my pictures from Canada, so here you go. It isn't all of them, but I think it is enough. The picture of the hockey game we went to wouldn't cooperate, but you know that you can't go to Canada without going to at least one hockey game.

The pictures so far are of the 5AM trying to leave, and dinner at 5 guys in Montana and then entering B.C. and Heather sleeping on her bed from England so we were told. The hotel guy brought us Cuban chocolate. We were very happy. That is a train station car inside redone.

Elise and I at the train museum found a safe...

Elise is getting away...yeah, we are pretty silly...




There's a jellyfish and some pictures of Vancouver. And the one below is the first time I saw the ocean! There was some clam still in the shell.
This is the columbia river and over here is Vancouver
