Miles Today - 5. Miles to Date - 2700.
Warm and Rainy.
Snowslide held us up for 4 hours last night. Arrived in Vancouver 6.5 hours late.
The mountains were absolutely indescribable. Never before has man been able to see such spectacles as these mountains and that train trip through the Rockies.
I finished my first roll of film. I just hope a few of the pictures turn out.
I’m bunking at the home of Mr. Jones, head of the Fairview Boys’ Club.
Saw Vancouver’s main streets in lights tonight. More neon per mile than any other city in North America. It’s a city of hardrocks.
Met Sadleir at the station but didn’t get much chance to speak to him.
Tomorrow, the whole contingent meets at Headquarters. Also a tour of city by Mr. Jones.
