Pacific Northwest Trekkers Reach CANADA and Vancouver!


Today's weather took a turn for the rain, but we pedaled on towards Vancouver. Through headwind and a constant minor drizzle, we crossed the Canadian border and continued our trek. As we were paused on the sidewalk referencing our maps for an upcoming turn, a Canadian spirit-guide of sorts (Deidre) emerged. She led us through the complicated, winding bike route as we rode over bridges and on trails. 10 miles later, our new friend (and honorary "Point") bid us farewell as she continued her own ride back to the border. Later, as we bunched together to consult our maps, another friendly Canadian guided us towards the bike route and downtown Vancouver. We checked-in to the hostel both tired and proud after an incredible day of biking. Tomorrow we explore Vancouver aay!
