Tracy and I are on a mini vacation in BC. We are staying at Fairmont Vacation Villas at Hillside with some of our family. Earlier today we had a nice gift exchange and had a great time playing games and just hanging around!

Tracy and I loaded our car and headed West for a little getaway :)

Earlier today Tracy and I visited Taboo Naughty But Nice Show... here are a couple of photographs I took.

Tracy and I and our friend Greg had a great day in West Edmonton Mall yesterday. Four hours of swimming, great food, mini golf, etc... wonderful time!

Tracy and I spent our day meeting Tracy's family at Radium Hot Springs in British Columbia. We spent three hours swimming followed by a wonderful dinner... Great time! It was nice to relax and just spend time with family after the whole week of photo shoots :)

Some people were asking me to post a Google map of my trip so here it is :) It is pretty accurate, just we did some portions of the trip multiple times, and its not 100% in big cities. Google doesn't allow to have more points on the map and I just can't remember exactly what streets we took in big cities :) Also I didn't have enough point to mark toads that we took in Mexico

DAY 16: Today we rode for 840km... Home sweet home, we finally made it! Wow what a trip it was! In total I rode for 7,107 kilometres, visited 3 countries, and covered 12 different states and provinces!

DAY 15: Today we rode for 456km... We were planning to ride more than that, but than we decided to quickly drive though the Yellowstone National Park. Yellowstone is beautiful and we ended up spending the whole day there. Tomorrow we will try to make it home, but we will need to ride for about 850km... Wish us luck :)

This is what I call a close encounter with a wild buffalo! Its a bit scary because with a bike you don't really have anywhere to hide if he doesn't like you :)

Sitting at the highest point in Yellowstone National Park. The scooter did great at high altitudes :)

DAY 14: Today we rode for 588km... Well, after 14,000km it finally happened... Today I had my first breakdown. I'm not sure how it happened, probably a rock hit it or something, but while going 130 km/h, my scooter started to smoke. I stopped right away and noticed that my oil filter was almost cracked in half and I lost all my oil :( I had to get it towed and luckily it was fixed :) Just a new oil filter and and some oil and I was good to go. We lost lots of time today but still managed to put on some good driving numbers :)

DAY 13: Today we rode for 563km... Went through three states today, Nevada, Arizona, now we are in Utah. We are on our way home :) Lots of high speed driving today, in Utah they have 80 miles/h speed limit.

Driving through Arizona was very hot, my gauge showed +40C, especially hot when you are wearing a full face helmet and an armored jacket.
