Vacation 1: Road trip

,Jesse and I went to go meet his mom in BC on his days off. It was our first major road trip together and they say that if you can survive a long road trip together then you have a good relationship. But obviously we win. The roads in BC are different from Alberta, and they have some crazed ass weird laws for the road, for example. In Vancouver they have a "lane hoy" where only people that have 2 or more passengers in the car can drive. I think it was the only reason why we didn't get stuck in a traffic jam in Vancouver on our way to the ferries. 

But the drive up was nice we had driven to Revelstoke and got a motel for the night, which it was not the best motel but it was a great price for the motel. They also had the best steak that Jesse had ever tried in a long time. It was so juicy and delicious but it was a good place to eat. But the gas prices are crazy, but in these towns they can up the price of gas because there might not be another gas station for like 300 km or so, way to cheat people out of their money but it is a need. Also it the roads can be frustrating especially behind semi's because if they miss a shift they will have their hazard lights going up the highway going only 40 km/h. 

Driving in other cities is also really crazy in Vancouver it is always rush hour and people in BC do not really care about their speed. When we were coming up to a speed sign in Vancouver it would show the speed that you were doing and when we passed it, it kept on flashing to slow down and then eventually it just showed a frownie face because of how fast we were going.

On the way back people really would not care about the speed limit, on the highways the speed limit is 90 km/h but they were really going 130 km/h and that was slow. But also in BC it is illegal to have photo radar so a cop can only pull you over, so just make sure there is no po po around and you are good. 

Also in BC they have to have license plates on the front and back of their vehicles, which I thought was weird. 

But that just about tells you about our road trip's to and from BC. In my next post I will tell about what it was like at his mom's and being in youbou and naniamo.
