All packed up and ready to leave the RV Park by 7 am. Today it is Peter’s Birthday in Australia. Noah has already decided that we (those who have birthdays away) get two days to celebrate.
We needed an early start to catch the BC Ferry from Departure Bay, back to Horseshoe Bay, Vancouver. The scenic journey taking 1hr 40 minutes, 30 nautical miles.
As we arrived at the ferry terminal early we thought we might make an early departure. Unfortunately, this was not to be, we were the ONLY vehicle that did not make it.
Not a problem, a relaxing breakfast before we boarded the 7.45 am ferry.
Although an announcement of a sighting from the captain, we did not see any whales on the crossing.
After our arrival in Vancouver, we drove up to Cypress Mountain and absorbed the beautiful view of Vancouver from Cypress Provincial Park.
The last time we were in Vancouver, three years ago, for three days, I was very sick and did not leave the room, except to go to the Japanese restaurant across the road, once.
I am looking forward to seeing more…
Onto our campsite for tonight, Burnaby Cariboo RV Park. Once settled in we decided to start the process of getting an updated x-ray on Wes’s arm as the doctor wanted to make sure the arm was healing as planned.
Pete found a walk-in doctor not far, with a reasonable waiting time and then it was onto the imaging center for the x-ray.
No Uber here in Vancouver, relying on taxis, which at this stage have been reliable.
The process was relatively smooth. Although from a non-medical perspective, the x-ray did not look good, the bone looked like it had moved. I hope the doctor is happy with the progress, I don’t think I could watch Wes go through any more pain.
Across the road from the imaging centre for a very early Japanese dinner and then back in a taxi to the RV Park.
I managed to lose my GK Endurance cap…
A relaxing evening in the motorhome ready for the big Peter Brown’s birthday tomorrow.

So happy to read your blog again Kay.
Which Doctor will read the XRay…?
I guess you read about the escapees from Greenough Prison.
Lots of love to you all.
