Jun 12, 2010 - Boston Bar, BC

June 12,2010 day 7 Sunny skies finally. We are in the mountains now; heavily forested. Hwy 1 follows the Fraser River; winding its way north. Our first stop this morning is at the Minter Gardens just south of Hope. It covers 32 acres but I think half is parking lot. Very nice! There are 12 theme gardens, each with a unique design, with paved paths wandering through them and numerous side trails that lead to small hidden gardens.

This canyon follows the Frasier River down to Vancouver?? I think....

Alaska and Great Northwest Road Trip 2008

Jul 17, 2006 - Entering Canada ---

Crossed the border at Sumas, Washington. Had no problems, just a few questions, no inspections. Headed east on Trans Canada Hwy 1. The trip went through flat farm land until we got to Hope, then the road turned up the Frazer River canyon. Lots of curves, ups, downs, and more curves. Was a beautiful trip. We ended up at a little campground in Boston Bar, BC. Nice little place, big, long & wide, shaded, full hookups, with a little eatery next door.

May 5, 2006 - At Home Still

The clock has started ticking, and I do not even have a ticket yet, something I really should deal with. This is mainly an entry to test out this system, and hope it works. I made my first booking, it is at The Generator in London, its a hostel. Josh and Sumerlee recommend it, as does the Let's Go book. Derrick on the other hand only know of it because he hanged out with some drunken girls who were trying to find the place... score!
