Wednesday, September 14: North BC Circle to Vancouver

 Last day of our BC vacation! But what a great way to end it! Leaving Cache Creek, we looped north to pick up highway 99, which we followed all the way south to Richmond. The scenery was rugged and beautiful. The highway was terrifying for the first 80 kilometres or so. I made Larry drive that bit. We stopped often to admire
the Fraser Canyon (now we’ve seen both ends of it) and then bits and

pieces of Cayoosh Creek and the various waterfalls that feed it. 

Lillooet was really cute, but it was too early for lunch, so after a quick tour of main street, we went on our way. We crossed into Whistler just before noon and wandered the village for a bit before and after lunch. Then the final run down the Sea to Sky Highway, with amazing Howe Sound on our right, through Vancouver traffic to 

 

the Sandman Hotel in Richmond at the airport. After checking in we found our way to the Avis office, returned the car, walked back to the hotel and joined our Intrepid group for dinner.
