Hello from Whitehorse, the last night of our holidays, we are a day behind oz so it's Tuesday night at 8.20pm. We leave Wednesday at 11.55pm and arrive back in Sydney on Friday morning. Our last travel blog left us at Raspberry Island and we were supposed to do a half day bear view via sea plane in Katmai National Park, home to over 2,000 brown bears and at 3.00am that morning the wind shook our cabin and continued to do so until we we left at 10.00am. Unfortunately we did not get to do our bear view and this was [View Full Entry]

Hello from Raspberry Island located within Kodiak Island, what an amazing place this remote lodge is.....Sorry this entry is going to be long, we have done loads over the last week.

We arrived safely and spent the first couple of days in Vancouver with jetlag and slept during the day and wide awake at 2.00am and there isn't much to do at that time except watch tv. We left Vancouver and started our drive to Whistler and I thought that Mark taking me on my first couple of mountain bike rides tested our relationship but nothing like being a passenger with him while he is driving on the other side of the road.
