After visiting Halifax, Montreal, Edmonton and Yellowknife it is time for the last city on my road trip and that is Vancouver.
We got to Vancouver at around 10:30 p.m and we slept in the first hotel we found and got ready for the day ahead of us because we were going to watch team Canada face team America as they fight for gold
We woke up at 8:30 and got ready to watch team Canada kick team America's a**. i thought by waking up at 8:30 we could get there before the ruch but my dad forgot the speed limit for the third time in this trip and it held us back and by the time we got there it was packed but we still manged to get in, find our seats and get ready before the game got started but nothing could get us ready for what we saw. The game was close all the way through but in the 3rd period with 1 minute left Canada was up by one but America didn't give up and scored with less then a minute left and sent the game into over time but Sidney Crosby scored the game winning goal in over time to give Canada gold and every one in Canada happiness and boy did they express it everyone was screaming and jumping and it didn't end there everyone in Vancouver was outside it was just amazing and it didn't stop because after the hockey game there was he closing ceremony.

After the amazing game yesterday all we had to do today is walk outside because every one was outside a partying and that is exactly what we did for the rest of the day.
Thank your for reading my roadtrip around Canada i hope u had as much fun reading it as i did doing it and yes i did have burger king in Vancouver i just didn't right it up there.
Hi Abubaker,
ReplyDeleteI noticed you have the TripAdvisor link in this article. Here is another pretty awesome resource, maybe worth a mention. https://www.airbnb.ca/things-to-do/vancouver
