Day 94 bye bye

We were up at 6 and continued to do jobs. We got rid of all the rabbish in the garage. Washed all the bed sheets and hung them out. We weighed the cases again it was going to be marginal with respect to meeting our luggage requirements 23 kegs per bag. We had pre payed for an extra bag. £37 which was really cheap for an extra 23 kgs.

We ended up leaving at 9.30. It took approx 2.45. 

When we got to Europcar I knew I would have to pay for the broken car window. The question was how much??. I was expecting £300-400 but was pleased that it was £98. Which is still a lot but excess is excess.



We checked in and it took ages to get through customs anna was there for 30 mins waiting as she had make up in her carry on etc. We sat down for 10 mins and then our flight started boarding so really it worked out perfectly.

On the flight we watched 3 movies and did not sleep as it was going to be 5.30 when we arrived in Vancouver. Luke unfortunately fell asleep with one hour to go.

Then we had a 40 min wait to clear customs


We then got a taxi and were at the hotel by 7.30 pm needless to say we were all asleep by 9 pm.

Big day tomorrow and meeting up with the McMillan clan.
