On Tuesday we said goodbye to the Dillard Family and headed up to Vancouver, Canada. Unfortunately Raider had come down sick the night before (he actually threw up all over Sarah's bathroom and Micah had to clean it up the next morning - SO gross - Micah wanted me to take a picture but I refused to even look). So it took us approximately 5 HOURS to travel the 130 miles from Seattle to Vancouver. We had to stop about every 30 minutes, between Raider getting sick and Haylie needing to use the potty. We arrived in Vancouver that evening and it had started raining. So, while Raider slept, the rest of us walked all around the downtown and stopped for some dinner. We really loved walking around town and enjoying the atmosphere.
The next day we went to the Vancouver Aquarium. Haylie absolutely loved looking at the fishies. Raider made mention of Nemo and from then on Haylie was running around the whole place in search of Nemo.
While at the museum we saw Hurley from the TV show Lost. I tried to get Raider to take a picture of him but he wouldn't so I had to settle for this one of Raider in front of him. I think he knew I was taking a picture because he turned around when I took it. You can see Raider was quite embarrassed. If you can't tell, Hurley is the guy with the orange backpack in the background. (Raider's shirt even says Hurley - funny)
After the aquarium we walked around beautiful Stanley Park. We went on the train throughout the park - all through the trees, streams etc. This was one of our favorite things from our vacation.
We really liked our hotel in Vancouver, especially the huge window (which took up almost one wall of the room) that overlooked the downtown area. We wished we could stay longer but we only had two nights and then we were headed off to Victoria.
