Scenery
Some absolutely breathtaking photography

Straight off the prairie!!!

Too True
Haha! Nice blog. Been there with the border crossing experience and can totally relate. I had to have finger prints, eye scan, among the interrogation. What a nightmare! Getting the plane over is even worse.

Great adventure!
I love Vancouver and have always wanted to go to Whistler. Great photos and description, so I have an idea of what to expect. How wise of you to take those lessons, and hope you get to use them in Banff. Happy snow days!

AAA Plus
Sounds like you scored a more reliable set of wheels. Also sounds as if you scored a fortuitous place to break down as it turned out. Wouldn't have happened if you hadn't spend the time with Dave & Merry Jo. Always pays to have an up side.

Kind and friendly Americans
Most Americans are like the ones you met and not like the ones you read about in the news. So sorry the car gave out on you. It was wonderful meeting you. Hope the rest of your trip is smooth sailing. Those redwoods are very special.

The US of A...
Hope you've recovered from the bug... there's nothing worse than having to navigate unfamiliar territory when you feel like crap. The public transport system sounds very much like Hobart's - although the roads are far from congested over here.

My hometown!
I'm so glad that you stopped in Santa Barbara, my hometown, and didn't just drive past it--your photos made me a bit homesick. So sorry about the weather; until about a week ago, we were in the midst of a sunny, beautiful drought. Elephant seals, Hearst Castle, Big Sur--so many greats on Route 1 (tricky driving even for us natives). If you return to Monterey, hope you can visit the amazing aquarium there. Look forward to San Fran, the best CA city.

Great story
Had a good chuckle with this story, well written, entertaining and informative. Travel safe. Bernie

LA Traffic
Years ago I lived in LA for a short time and my apartment looked out over the intersection of two major interstates crossing. On a cool winter evening I'd sit on the balcony and watch the traffic. As it got dark and their lights came on it was rather beautiful. I felt bad for them moving so slowly but it was my entertainment. I had to wonder how many hours of their life they sat going no where. Glad you are feeling better and took a down day. Looking forward to meeting you.
