Rather than travel by commercial airline all the way, they decided to fly to Vancouver and then take the train. For both of them，the thought of crossing the whole country by rail was exciting. Before starting out, they spent a couple of days in Vancouver, seeing the sights. During their first day, as is typical of Vancouver, it rained. Despite the weather, they were able to take a boat ride out into the bay, and later visit an island that had wonderful shops selling crafts and antiques.
