May 7 - Canada: Vancouver, British Columbia

We had planned to leave today, but the news yesterday was filled with the unexpected May Snowstorm that was dropping 60 centimeters of snow on Calgary.  And since we were planning on driving near Calgary to get to Glacier National Park, we figured we should probably wait it out another day.

But we need to be in Utah by May 13, because we told my little sister we'd be there and she arranged to take some time off.  So we actually have dates to abide by.  Therefore, it looks like we're going to have to pass up Glacier National Park (only one road is open there anyway) and head straight to Yellowstone.  That will be about a 900 mile drive, which we hope to crank out tomorrow.  So we'll see.

Today, we spent the day running errands and stuff.  We took about 3 hours and went to a nearby laundromat to do our three loads of laundry.  We had lunch at Wendy's and treated ourselves to Frosties too.  We also re-arranged the car and the luggage rack on top.  This involved cramming things in and around until the lid closed shut and locked.  How exactly did we accumulate all this stuff?

We packed up our stuff and then went to Han's for Chinese take-out for dinner.  So that was our exciting day.  Pretty thrilling, but I suppose we're entitled to some boring days.
