DAY 10
Ok so today we went on a day tour to grouse mountain and capilanos .. Our tour guided was an American Indian named chuck-us-hoot translated-standing proud or... In english Jeff watts lol. Travelling through the city we learnt that BC- British Columbia means "bring cash" lol, the population of BC is 4 million and 2 million of those are in Vancouver. Vancouver city itself is a working city not a residential city. First stop was the salmon hatchery which was really interesting, there are 5 different species of salmon and each species go to different rivers.. On the way back to the bus we got in touch with our wild side lol and picked thumble berries, huckleberries and salmon berries from the trees and ate them lol.. We also learnt which leaves are good for toilet paper and skunk cabbage is good for baking lol .. Just incase I get lost in the wilderness! Lol
Next we headed to capilanos where we crossed the suspension bridge which is 450 feet long and did a tree top walk .. The views were amazing from the suspicion bridge!! Grouse mountain was out next stop.. We had the best view out of the gondola thanks to our tour guide it went up 37000 feet above sea level and the views were incredible!!! At the top we went to the lumberjack show .. Mmmm how much wood can a wood chopper chop ?? Lol definitely a highlight ! The bird show was pretty good too the owl and the bald eagle were beautiful.. Back down the gondola we went and back to the hotel.
Once we got back to the hotel we got dressed to have dinner and hit the town :) we went to the restaurant down stairs for dinner and ordered the wild salmon ( after today's educating we at least knew what to order lol) $ 4.50 super sized cocktails is where it all started.. Then it was off to town we went .. Started off at the nightclub tonic .. A few shots and vodka and red bulls and it was time to move on lol.. Next stop caprice, the drinks were good but the music was lame so we decided to head back to tonic... The shots we were ordering were a kinda "we'll have what he's having" lol .. After a fair few more shots the bar man informed us that the shots were called dirty hookers... Nice huh!! Haha realized that Canadians really need to work on there pick up line lmao ... Got invited to the VIP section by the Aussie DJ lol funny stuff..
Headed home at around 2:30 as we had to be at the Airport at 9:00 for our flight to LA .. That's going to be interesting
