Getting the hell out of Vancouver.

is proving to be more difficult than we thought. Last night, we dragged all our luggage down to the bus depot, all excited and fired up for a nice change of scenery, only to be told in the last minute that buses won't be running to Banff due to hazardous road conditions.
but that's not all. After finding out that the buses would go only as far as Revelstoke, a town few hours away from Banff, we made an immense effort to find and book accomodation there. We were hopeful oncemore. Hopeful, only for our dreams to be crushed by the cruelest hand of god yet again. As a few hours short of leaving it was announced that now the road to Revelstoke was also closed off for the night.

Third time lucky I say. I'm going to get out of Vancouver tonight, and I don't care how.

Frustrated (but still positive),

why is everyone being so sympathetic??!
whinge whinge...
a bit of cement is what you all need.
the trip is meant to be hideous and frustrating, that's what makes it funny when you get home!
well its funny for me anyway! i mean otherwise all you would have to write would be
"today we went to the bus station and went to banff."
anyway hope you're having an awesome time!
ps. houseboats rocked.
