I broke the van!

Yup, the van is toast. That is the exact words the mechanic said this morning. The bill is around 4000 dollars so far :/ The transmission is gone and the power steering is out. To be honest, we saw what we wanted in terms of the Rockies and we were on our way back to Vancouver. We stopped for a coffee at a little diner and when I tried to reverse out the car park... no reverse gear, soon after the power steering went! That made for some interesting driving. We are desperately trying to get back to Kamploops so we can hire a car to Vancouver... This is all on wicked campers bill, I might add. It's hard to be mad at wicked campers as we had an amazing time with the van, it's just the last stretch and they were not very organised when it comes to sorting this mess out. If we were in the middle of nowhere we would be fooked right now, so it's good we broke down in a town.




Goodbye van :( we did have a great time in it but we gotta leave it behind in cache creek. We got a lift to kamploops from a nice lady called darlene.



So, it's a greyhound bus back to Vancouver. Fun!
