On the one hand, we were looking forward to our home, on the other hand, we were sad that the vacation was over. All in all, it was a very nice time with great experiences and...

Looking back, I found the relaxed serenity of the locals most impressive. And honestly, if a country has a lot of space, it's Canada.

The first bus that came unfortunately did not go in our direction, but the bus driver asked us where we wanted to go and where we came from. Then he gave us 4 tickets for the ride...

Since the train tracks were behind us, we heard the huge long freight trains passing by occasionally at night. We once tried to count the wagons and came up with over 150.

06:30 am was wake-up time this morning. The weather was very cloudy, foggy, and cold. There was no sunshine, but it was dry.

Our first destination was the Athabasca Falls along the river of the same name. The parking lot was moderately filled, and we set off on the short walk to the waterfall.

We then made our way to the Wabasso Campground. It is located on the Athabasca River on Highway 93A south of Jasper. After leaving the Icefields Parkway and turning onto Highway...

Spontaneously, the mountain across from our campsite came to mind, so we decided to visit the Mt. Whistler Lift Station.

Today we had to get up early again. 6:00 am wake-up call and getting ready. It was quite cold again and Anne's face cream was frozen. The children's mood correspondingly :-(

Our destination now was Johnston Canyon, where we wanted to take a recommended hike to the Lower and Upper Falls according to the guidebook.

As we sat at breakfast, Marie suddenly called out 'look, a deer' and sure enough, about 5 meters from our RV, a herd of elk, a bull and several cows, were grazing calmly and were...

It was our first RV trip and I had booked a medium-sized model. Now we were facing a 28-foot RV, which was quite impressive.

After a very relaxing and peaceful night, we again admired the magnificent view from the bedroom when we woke up. It was once again a cloudless sky, with the prospect of the best...

First, we wanted to visit Ucluelet. The place is very small and manageable. It consists of many hotels, guesthouses, and surf shops.

Today we had whale watching on the program and we were very excited. The weather was, as usual, very nice, sunny, and clear.

A few minutes later, you could already see several vehicles parked on the side of the road, and we had a feeling that we had arrived at Cathedral Grove. Here, on both sides of the...

After a very restful night's sleep, we enjoyed the great view from our room again in the morning. Since it was still very quiet, Anne and I decided to take a short swim in the...

This morning it was time to say goodbye to our hosts.

Heute sollte es ein Tag für die Mädels werden. Es Stand Shopping auf dem Programm.

Today, a trip to the north of the city was on the agenda, to Lynn Valley. This tip was given to us by Alexis, after we initially wanted to go to Capilano Suspension Bridge.

Now we woke up more refreshed and got a delicious breakfast again. Today we had Chinatown, Gastown and Stanley Park on the agenda.

After a restless sleep, we got up around 8:00 am and had a wonderful breakfast in our hosts' cozy kitchen, with fresh blueberries, yogurt, crunchy muesli, and banana bread.

On time at 11:00 local time, we started with Air Canada to Toronto. ✈️ After takeoff, in sunny weather, we had a wonderful view of the British coast. After 8 hours of smooth...
