It has been a long day but we are in Vancouver. Tom took us to catch our 7:00 AM flight to Seattle where we picked up a car and drove north. We are staying in a new hotel in North Vancouver. Thanks for the suggestion Louise Wallis. The area which historically housed ship building and other maritime related operations is being converted into a residential area of high-rise apartments and hotels. This is a picture from our balcony looking back on Vancouver.

The ride from Seattle and into Vancouver brought back lots of memories from our days in Spokane and the sight of snow-capped rugged peaks wet our appetites of what is to come.
