... spørsmål osv. Samtidig har mine muntlige språkegenskaper og kulturelle forståelser tatt av!<br><br>Jeg landet i Seattle og reiste laaangt ut av byen for å finne hostellet mitt. Seattle er en sånn by som jeg egentlig ikke vet hvorfor jeg reiser til. Man finner jo ting som virker kjent, slik som tårnet fra Fraiser og disse fiskeselgerne som hiver fisken rundt og skriker morsomme ting. Sånne byer er ...

... and planning to climb Grouse this weekend (I know I said that last time but it was still closed, honest!), so alls currently good. Gazz is FINALLY getting himself over this month, June 17th to be exact, so that should be pretty good. Think he's probably the worst tourist I know though so not sure it will aid the blog. Oh well......<br><br>Until next time<br><br>Take it easy<br><br>Ralph<br><br>Ps I'm now on skype because I'm down with all that technological ****. Gis a call. Ah go on!!<br><br>

... my bearings now, partly thanks to my trusty Lonely Planet, and partly due to my stubborn attitude to not go back on myself (I actually looked to do a bus tour on Saturday but when I looked at the route I realised I'd walked everywhere on it already! Hardcore). Its a really cool place with lots of nice bars and stuff. The beer is way pricey mind, at least 3 quid a pint everywhere, but food is cheap (I've eaten out ALOT) and nice. I'd ...

... were particularly interested. Still we managed to make a visit, and have a look around. It's like visiting an airport (that is in effect what it is). We would have dearly loved to do the factory tour, but we settled for what we could see - unforturnately can't really get it on photos. Had some lunch (in the campervan of course - great inventions these things), and then headed out and on our way to Vancouver, Canada. Really nice drive up, easy roads ...

... and we both agree that we'd like to come back with a group of friends on another trip and spend a week or two here. Because of our limited time we only managed to go hiking for a single day, but we made a decent go of it and we were out for around 7 hours of climbing up rocky hills and around and over some very impressive waterfalls. Unfortunately the only glimpse of a bear we had was whilst we were on one of the buses, although they are all over the area, we did ...

... was accepted and we paid a $1000 deposit We had "our" RV ! To celebrate we went down into the local mall to a "Zellars" store (similar to a Kmart) and purchased all the things we needed. We quickly discovered that this was going to be expensive so we just put our heads down and got everything we thought we needed. Sheets, pillows, duvets, towels, plates, glasses/cups ...

... Canadian restaurant, which is as odd as it sounds. We ordered a dish each and shared, which turned out to be a LOT of food. Sated (or should that be satayed?), and up to date on our Chinese horoscopes (Kirsty was not impressed to find that she is a Monkey), we continued to Vancouver. Arriving in the city, we quickly found the address of Bob, our host for the next few days. We rang the doorbell, a head stuck out of the window and was probably quite surprised to have a view of ...

Today would be a cinch. Rather than a long, arduous eight hour drive, all we had to do was drive just a few hours north of Seattle and we would be back in Canada again. Before relaxing though, we found ourselves being interrogated by the Canadian customs inspector: How far south did you travel? How many days did it take you to get from there to here? How many goals did Wayne Gretzky score during the 1984 final of the Stanley Cup? Colin had no idea (especially when it came to Hockey ...
