While it was planned to be doing an overnight paddling excursion up Indian Arm, there were other factors at work to keep us away from the water.
Kayaking Indian Arm
Approaching the Iron Worker’s Memorial Bridge, we were passed by many police cruisers. In the distance we could see no traffic, other than a poor soul wanting to enter the water by other means. Listening to the radio, there was a traffic accident on the Lions Gate Bridge, soooo… we sat outside and had a nice BBQ to celebrate Canada’s 141st birthday.
Happy Canada Day!

Just a few more weeks before we begin our Alaska adventure. The price of fuel continues to climb with each passing day, so this will quite likely be our last big driving adventure with a fossil fueled vehicle.
Our Adventure Vehicle
Rusty taking us back home, Tierra del FuegoStarting in
Vancouver, British Columbia, will make a quick run north with limited stops to
Atlin and then set a more leisurely pace to
Inuvik, North West Territories before heading South to
Anchorage, Alaska and the
Kenai Peninsula then slowly make our way South back home having completed about three weeks of travel. Although it will have been ten years, we will be completing our trans continental trip in Inuvik with a little celebration. A landmark of having traveled both continents, North to South by vehicle, too bad we
couldn’t finish the trip with ‘Rusty’, with any luck his metal has reincarnated as an
Audi R8!
