A Summary?

Looking back over the last two weeks .......we were gone 14 days, 4 free nights with Warm Showers hosts. We travelled by ferry, bus, train, streetcar, bike and foot. Total biked, 475 kms! Cost, will know when the Visa bill comes in. Best parts: the scenery and the people we met along the way. 

Here are our last photos. What was really special about this picture is what we learned about the rider, Anton Tasic, whom we met at Anacortes, Washington on the ferry to Sidney. You see Anton and Norm near the Selkirk Trestle -- we pedalled together down the Lochside Trail from the ferry dock. He is from Maribor, Slovenia and has already biked 7200 kms as of today from Yorktown, Virginia in 54 days. Anton is now heading down the coast to San Diego for another 3000 kms before flying home out of LA at the end of July. A truly nice guy, one of the interesting cyclists you meet along the way.You can see his daughter's bear, Berry on the back of his ICE English recumbent tricycle. Yellow Bunny's first friend.


Anton has invited us to visit him in Solvenia. You never know.......
