Destination 236:
km122'073
Abschied von Vancouver Island. Um nicht in der Grossstadt Vancouver noch grosse Einkaeufe zu machen, tue ich dies noch hier in Victoria.
Anschliessend Faehre zurueck zum Festland und in Vancouver Besuch eines Internet Cafes um meine Fotos auf CD zu brennen. Leider erweist sich das Cafe als Treffpunkt der Hirnlosen, da die PC zwar alle CD-Brenner und Software besitzen, das Laufwerk aber nicht dafuer konfiguriert ist, da man dies als speziellen (teuren) Service erkannt kat. Daher nur die noetigsten Dateien versandt und Weiterfahrt raus aus der Stadt. Der naechste Campingplatz wird aber erst nach 100 Kilometer erreicht in Squamish.
XXXXX
Fare well to Vancouver Island. To avoid shopping in the City of Vancouver I do the last shopping here in Victoria.
Afterwards back to the mainland by the ferry and visit of an Internet-Cafe to burn my pictures on CD-Rom. Unfortunately it turns out to be a place where low educated humans do business, because the computers all have got a CD-Burning-Rom device and installed software for burning rom, but the drive itself is not connected (to burn) as the owners recognized that additional (more expensive) service. Therefore I only sent the most important mails and files and left the city. The next Campground I found not untill at Squamish 100 km north away.

Oh no!
That's too bad, I hope you can remember some of what you wrote, and maybe you can redo it?

Re: Oh no!
I wish I could. But I lost the most files on memory cards, BUT also my Computer broke down whose files got lost also. I (maybe) do write down, but on paper only due of this 100% collapse of modern technology (produced trash) by PALM who even does not offer support!!! What Christopher Columbus did successfully (by writing on paper) can't be too bad, can it....?
