2014 Fall Road Trip Day 2.

I Spent the morning with my sister and her kids, farmers market, few kid games, trampoline etc. nice relaxed morning before hitting the road around 1 in the afternoon. 

Back on the Highway! 
Little cloudy of a morning, but good for a drive. (What day isn't though right?)



View's through this area very different from the Rockies, reminds me a lot of italy actually and well makes sense since its BC's wine country. (some cool wineries there as well) and I am loving the new increased speed limits though! Makes a big difference really and well proven to be safer. More consistent speed of cars on the highway = less accidents. Wish Alberta would smarten up.

Making Good time! 

Cresting over the Valley with more great views! 
Morning coffee kicked in. Time for a quick stop and a picture haha



Clouds started to clear up, and it was turning out to be a great day!

Blue Sky!! 
Ok maybe not, but still great driving weather, no sun in the eyes, cool fall temps - perfect really.



And of course, once you get closer to the coast what do you get? Yeaa rain, always with the rain.



Enroute to HPA Motorsports and there was this...

Silly Volkswagen
Not exactly sure what he was doing up there haha, but he was just getting out of his car when I passed. Maybe avoided an accident? Not sure. But had a nice visit at HPA, pucked up yet another puck mount.. This time for a guy in South Africa with a bad as S3 (3 door) on air... Will dig up pictures. But he was coming to USA for H20i so figured we could help him out, I pick up the mount, drop it off with buddy in Bellingham and he shipped it out east to our friend on the coast going to h2oi, the power of the A3 group haha.

Obligatory bridge shot arriving to Vancouver.



This is pretty much the end of Day 2 for driving anyways!

Approx. Distance = 440km

Trip Total = 1,280km

Enjoyed the rest of the day in Van with the girlfriend, had dinner etc nothing to crazy as we were hitting the ferry to Vancouver Island at 7am and wanted to be there nice and early to make sure we got on. (BC ferries can get pretty busy apparently)

Cheers!!
