Next stop was Shannon Falls which was just spectacular!! Stopped there and had lunch- couldn't get a much better backdrop!
Back to Vancouver where we had to drop the car off before catching the train to Seattle. We had plenty of time (or so we thought) so we stopped at a Tim Hortons for some more cake batter ice cream- SO GOOD!! The time just seemed to slip away and all of a sudden we were stuck in traffic, not moving very quickly, and late for our train!! Ian dropped us off & then went to take the car back while I filled out the paperwork & hopped in line & hoped to God he turned up in time! Luckily he was back with plenty of time to spare. Boarded the train and settled in for the four and a half hour journey. We got talking to a lovely family from Missouri who were 'like the American version of us' according to Josh lol! By the end of the trip the kids were sitting together playing cards and the mums (Karen and I) were sitting together chatting. Beautiful scenery to look at and lovely company made the trip go pretty quickly. Arrived in Seattle just as the Mariners v Yankees game finished so taxis were a bit scarce. Decided would be easy enough to walk to our hotel as it was only 1.4km away. Didn't realise it was at a vertical incline!!! Getting really tired of hills!
