we've made it to vancouver after a day of watching bert go mad in shoe shops, he would fit in well in sex and the city, it can't be long before he starts looking at prada
unfortunately our hire car was broken into within an hour of being parked in downtown vancouver, they only stole one of bert's panniers which contained some clothes, his camera, and some other stuff, luckily they didn't take his other pannier loaded up with new cool stuff, and we both took our passports, documents, wallets and the laptop in my rucksack so that was safe
bummer
we're now crashing on the floor in jo's place, one of heidi's (my little sister) friends in vancouver, and we've been for some beers in Denny's! We are stylish people it is true.
vancouver is awesome though, great big steep snow covered mountains rising up just behind the city and a really strong asian influence, i can't wait to explore, it feels kinda like singapore
do you guys want this blog to continue now i'm not on the bike and bert has gone home? let me know, am happy to keep babbling
thanks for all the end-of-ride comments, it was well cool to read them all the way across

:( Oh, thats such bad news - all that way without mishap and then that happens! We're both just gutted for you
Your still travelling aren't you???
So the journey continues......
Its not about how you arrive somewhere, its about where you go and who you meet on the way.
Enjoy Canada, its a wonderful country.

Keep blogging Kelv! Don't deny us the adventure we crave and yet cannot have locked into our desks back in blighty.
now that you ain;t riding you can take more photos!
Yeah, keep going Kelv! It brightens up our wet Welsh 'summer'.
Kelv, sorry mate, dropped off the radar and no comms for a while. Really been staying away from the computer as much as possible as it was compulsory for the last 3 months to waste every day staring at it. I have now finished Uni work and have been planning my France trip this week, off to Alpe d'huez on Friday for a week then a week to the French med for some beach time :)
keep on blogging my friend, only forward...
Congrats by the way, and I told the fiend to get both panniers, what a waste of time he was.
Keep bloggin' Kelv :)
What an arse. Thieves are scum!
Keep blogging - don't worry we'll tell you when it gets dull! :-)
