on the way to jasper
glaciers everywhere...Hi all, After making our way from lake louise to Jasper on the coach we only stayed 1 night as the Hostel was a shit hole and we were 3 km at least from everywhere and had no car. So it was gonna be a nightmare to get food and drink so we headed the next day for Vancouver. 25 mins outside Jasper and the clock went back an hour. (its completely crazy)
After a coach journey which felt like a lifetime lol we finally arrived in Vancouver, We got up the next day and headed for stanley park to go to the aqarium. The park itself has a 5 1/2 mile radius its massive and the aquarium was good. Later that night we went out for a few drinks, we were sitting outside the bar and we met a couple of randoms who joined us, really dead on lads sitting telling us about all the good places to go etc. Well.... this complete random homeless guy walked over and said " you wanna see me climb that pole"?? he Pointed to this massive fuckin pole across the street in one of the busiest places in Vancouver. The lads next to

the mouth of a Glacier us turned round and said go and do it on the next block. He wanted a dollar to do it LOL so funny. The 2 fellas that was with us said that kinda stuff happens all the time. Once he said a guy came up to him and said you wanna see me puke on command for a dollar. Crazy fuckers would do anything for a buck. Thats about 50p lol.
So anyways after 2 days in Vancouver we made our way to Vancouver Island. We left about 5 in the morning and arrived at the top of vancouver island to a place called Port Hardy after traveling all day by Greyhound. We stayed there for another couple of days, not much to do here other than chill out and recharge our batteries. Takes it outta ya all this travelling around and all the time differences.
After staying in Port Hardy for 2 days, we met a couple of nice people and the manager was a nutcase...his stories were unreal, firstly he said he was a black belt in Karate and he beat all these cops up (he was a stick man and couldnt beat snow off a rope), then
he said he was running a hostel in Vancouver and a man was sleeping with girls and giving them AIDS, so he rang the cops and he got arrested. He was just completly full of shit!!! But funny all the same.
