Walking the Wall in Flat Light
"Nah man. The light's too flat. Might as well head straight to the pub!" - Words that would have most certainly gone through my head on such a grey day ten years ago. Even in a landscape as stunning as the Northumberland National Park.

Part 7: Canada in Concluding
They say all good things must come to end and our Canadian adventure was not exempt from this rule.
It seems hard and unfair to draw any conclusions about Canada because it feels like we only explored about one percent of this vast country. I fear that in reality it could even be less than that!

Canada Part 5: To Whistler or Not to Whistler
The drive to Horseshoe bay for breakfast was starting to feel like a daily commute! This was the fourth time we'd stopped here during our ten day trip, but this time we were getting a diner breakfast.

Another big tick off the holiday wishlist!
