Thursday 26th May Canada to USA Today we left Vernon early (7.15am) to head down to Seattle. Again we had beautiful scenery for this journey of mountains and lakes. It was a long day in the coach but it was very interesting crossing the border to the USA. We all got off the coach and went in to a building where officers checked our passports. All 51 of us were allowed to enter the USA without any questions.... Our tour guide said that many of the officers who work on the Canada USA border once worked on the USA Mexico border which is extremely difficult. Apparently they “burn out” and are then sent to the Canadian USA border to “recover” so they can be sent back. Anyway, we were just happy that they smiled at us. Driving into Seattle, the traffic was extremely busy but we finally made it to our accommodation. We had a very enjoyable dinner at the nearby restaurant where the boys (Rob and Paul) stayed on and chatted to locals and others over a few extra drinks.
Sorry no photos today.
