It's sort of fitting that our somewhat sporadically updated and neglected blog would fail to mention that we had successfully completed our journey until over a week after we met our goal.
In our defence, our arrival in Victoria saw us swept up in a flurry of wedding activity. First I was one of my good friend Andrea's bridesmaids on Saturday
and then we went to Matt's friend Kelly's wedding on Sunday.
Good times were had. It was beautiful. And the bike trip seemed to disappear into a blur of dress clothing and delicious food. All the hard picnic table benches and bad food cooked on a camp stove was quickly forgotten as we swaggered around plush venues eating delicious canapes. Poor us.
We arrived in Victoria after spending a few beautiful days on Salt Spring Island relaxing and celebrating the end of a totally fantastic adventure.
It was gorgeous and such a wonderful wrap up to our trip.
And given that our goal was to reach Victoria, we didn't say no when our friends offered to bring our bikes and gear home from for us in their car.
We waved it all good-bye and got to travel back unencumbered on public transit. We didn't complain and neither did our slowly recovering bums.
And we arrived home on Monday afternoon, and have been slowly reintegrating back into life on the Sunshine Coast. What a wonderful place to return to. Life is good! Can't wait to talk to more of you in person to catch up on your summer stories and share more of our tales in detail.
