Well here I am again writing my blog a little late but better than never so here I go. I have also just recently updated my Florida blog which is now uploaded, and San Fran and Vancouver part two are soon to follow. I have nearly caught up so I can have time to write about the rest of our travels as we leave Vancouver next Friday the 19th of October.

This journey brings us to the end of our South American travels and our visit to San Franci...

So early that it was not really morning, not really night, just a very strange time in the night to be waking up and heading to the airport.
