Lets start where I left off.

Wednesday, March 18
It was a rainy day so it was a little chilly out but no snow so it was still nice. We started out the day getting our pictures taken at the Olympic countdown clock.

We hopped on the bus and went to Stanley Park. Since it was raining so we just went to the aquarium and did not explore the park (like we had wanted to). The aquarium was interesting. My favorite part is still the sea otters and the jellyfish. After the aquarium we did some more shopping and then tried to go to Science World. There was absolutely no parking so we decided to skip out on Science World and go next time. We then picked up Becky from work and caught up on each others lives. We then went to Red Robin. I was super excited to try another new restaurant. I had this VERY SPICY chicken burger. Usually I can handle spice but wow I did not expect that. It was so good though. We watched LOST and went to bed.

We slept in and had breakfast. Then we took Sarah for another first, IKEA. She had never been to an IKEA before so it was a must. Someday I want an IKEA house :) After envying all of the new things at IKEA we went to this great restaurant where I had my first taste of Indian food. It was sooo good. Once our bellies were full we went on a search for dessert....gelato. Becky knew of this great place that only serves gelato and had like 40 flavours. It was sooo good. Sarah had her first gelato.

To end the day we went to Value Village and found some new games, cd's, and clothes. I miss having a thrift store. We spent the evening relaxing and watched the Office. Have to get my tv fixes :)

Friday, March 20
After saying our goodbye's we began our drive home. We drove all the way to Grande Prairie. Once we reached our hotel we went to check-in and discovered a line up of 6 guys. They were a part of a reggae band and would be playing that night. They really wanted us to come to their show but we were so exhausted after our drive and had to wake up early to drive the next morning so we didn't go.

Saturday, March 21: Final Day!
We met up with David in Fort St. John and made a final stop at Wal-Mart and McD's before heading home. We convoyed home and unpacked. George was excited to see me and didn't leave my side until today. I think that she was scared that I would leave again. Overall it was a great road trip! I can't wait until my trek up north for my half-marathon walk and my trip to Ontario in July.
