Timothy Lake (next to the Fraser River)

Moments after this photograph was taken I discovered one of the great economic advantages of traveling in a group of three: motels become much much more affordable. Of course a problem solved creates fresh dilemmas. With two queen sized beds in a romm who is going to sleep with who? I propose a very reasonable segregated system based on age and nationality. After some debate this is rejected and a rota system devised. As I spent a couple of chilly nights in the same tent with Alain in Bolivia so it is not a completely unfamiliar concept. On my first Canadian night with him a new phrase is added to my ever expanding German vocabularly "Wir sprechen nur" (we are just talking).
