We knew that Lennard's dad was going to come to the campground this morning to say goodbye, so I got ready as soon as I got up instead of sitting around. It was a good thing too, since I'd just got dressed and was getting Emma ready when he showed up! It was fun to show him our campsite and the trailer. We had breakfast and visited for quite a while and then, while the kids played at the playground, we got everything ready to go. We took a few pictures with the kids and grandpa and the we were on our way.
We didn't leave until 11:30 (10:30 BC time). Once we got going, we didn't want to stop. We had planned to stop in Merritt, but we missed the exit and ended up having to keep going on to Kamloops. We hadn't had lunch, so after we fuelled up, we went in to Costco, let the kids wander for a bit and then get some lunch/dinner.
It was definitely slow going on some of the long climbs!
They were not excited to be getting back in the truck and every few minutes we heard, "This is taking a long time!" We finally stopped for the night just outside of Sicamous. We pulled into our campsite and the kids hopped out of the truck and took off running. It was so good to let them just run and play. It didn't last too long as the mosquitos were horrible!
We'd bought the Lego movie at Costco and so we put it in to watch while we played with some Lego that I'd brought with us. The kids loved it and it was fun to see what they came up with. We had leftover Chinese food at about 8:00 for dinner and then the kids went straight to bed. It's been a long day. We are planning on going as far as Calgary tomorrow, so it will be another longer day.
