We also got to see Native Americans heading off on their journey to Neah Bay.  http://paddletomakah.org/

Some history:

The event is in its 21st year. Each summer, as many as 100 canoes from U.S. tribes and Canadian First Nations participate in the Tribal Canoe Journey. The journey by cedar canoe honors a centuries-old custom of transport, harvest and trade by Coast Salish Tribes.

This weekend my daddy & mommy took me to Vancouver…the other Vancouver, up in Canada. It was so cool. My auntie Tanya told mommy about Granville Island so they took me there and I think my mommy is in love. I really loved it too because they have a community water park that is FREE! Mommy says we will be going back often.

Mommy, it’s time to go, daddy is almost through the border…we don’t want him to leave without us!

 

Thanks for hanging out with us Daryl, we all hope you enjoy the rest of your time in Vancouver and have a great trip back to Ontario. I hope one day I get to come visit you in Ontario one day.
