Day 36 Victoria

On the road by 730 this morning trying to beat the heat; last night at 9 pm it was still 27 degrees.  The road thru the mountains was deserted with only the animals and a few logging trucks on it. Crisp air was a refreshing way to start the day, the eastern sunrise kept the chill away.
Hope was a gas and breakfast stop and then on into the Fraser Valley with the sun picking up heat.  We rolled into Denco Cycle at about 11 left my bike for them to check out while I dragged Al down main St for a much needed haircut.  He was panicing when the girl got the clippers out and started chopping away at it, no worries she did a great job.
We were in awe of the view at the ferry terminal, both if us have been missing the smell of the ocean.  We drove off the ferry at 5 pm with intentions of heading to mile zero, after observing the traffic and the heat we figured we would rather go to Mariahs. Mile zero can wait for the morning!!!
