[ Old-school town theatre ]

Chilliwack's old-school downtown main drag features a two-screen movie theatre that is about half the price of the Paramount in downtown Toronto. We saw the Wedding Crashers, but I have to say the best part of the whole show was the trailer for Serenity, based on the excellent Joss Whedon series Firefly. Go check it out.


[ World's oldest cellphone ]

Before heading out of town the next morning - Day 4 - I gave my sister in Italy a call. I used the world's oldest cellphone, which had racked up gobs of prepaid time on it because my grandmother never actually used it over the years she had it.


[ The Chillibowl Lanes ]

Every town needs a bowling alley, but not every town can have one called Chillibowl Lanes.


[ On the Coquihalla ]

Day 4 was one of the two main road-trip days. We headed up the Coquihalla and got our first taste of what was to be two solid days of impressive mountain scenery. Alas, I was never able to properly capture the incredible views.


[ Tollhouse view ]

Right after going through the tollbooth for the highway, we pulled off (with a bunch of other people you can see in the background) to take in the view. I can't quite explain what expression that is on my face.
