# 2 – Canada and Bust

Well, we accomplished one on the list that I thought might not get done. For our four day fall break, we drove to Canada. Katie Stevens, Angela Morton, Heather Potter and Chelsea Fisher. We crammed into my two door car and took off on the adventure with passports, snacks, a gps, and a hotel reservation. And, we had a great time! We learned about flashing green lights and exchange rates and kilometers. We walked downtown Vancouver at night and noted how safe it felt compared to Portland, but I concluded I still like Portland so much more. We didnt get any stamps at the Us or Canada Boarder, but we did all drive the car in Canada at some point, and that is pretty cool. Even though my car died 256 miles away from Portland on the way back and we needed to get a tow with a dude named Tarent, we all made it back safe and were glad we went. With a Canada patch not sewed on my backpack, I can say – CHECK!
