Canada, October 2003
Immediately after being
wedded
we fled the country to our exotic Canadian honeymoon.
We spent 3 days in Vancouver, then took an overnight
train
through the Rocky Mountains to Jasper, where we spent 2.5 days.
We then caught another
train
which went through more mountains for two days to Prince Rupert. From there we sailed overnight to Port Hardy on Vancouver Island on a
ferry
and worked our way down to Victoria (where we drank quite a lot of tea and met up with Tara's sister, Heather). Then it was back to Vancouver, then back to reality
