Vancouver. Again.
We originally had a route in mind, which involved heading east from Prince Rupert through 1000miles of Canadian forest.
We changed our minds and revisited Vancouver. Reasons: A. It sounded a bit boring. B. We met Jamie in the Yukon on his two-wheeled beamer. He said "Come visit me on Bowen Island if you are that way, it's just off Vancouver". Sarah thought he had 'smiliest' face, so we did. We took our friends Charlie & Judy and spent a great afternoon and evening with Jamie and Sue on Bowen.
We have learnt that it is worth travelling a long way - even a thousand miles - when you make a connection with someone, or a community, (Editor; even a bar) just to do that; make that connection.
Conversely it is also worth travelling away from home, maybe just so you can come home....
