Are We There Yet? Interesting photos and signs. Free and Low Cost Camps. Wednesday, 5 August 2015. Train and first night in Vancouver. After staying in Seattle for one night after the cruise, we took the Seattle Shuttle bus to King Street Station for the Amtrak Cascade Coastal train to Vancouver. Check-in and security went smoothly. The train was comfortable and the view wonderful. The train moved slowly enough for the scenery to pass and for us to take photos. View from our room :(. In the lift :).

Are We There Yet? Interesting photos and signs. Free and Low Cost Camps. Wednesday, 1 January 2014. Internet not working so well most of the time, but here is a catch up of what we've been doing. We went for a drive to Urunga and found this great camp site. The sign across the road says 'no camping' - but that was across the road :). Peter going out fishing - see how the park is full now - a few are leaving tomorrow (2 Jan). When Peter came back he said he only caught little ones, and signaled 4"-5".
