We didn’t notice our gorgeous backyard view at our AirBnB until that morning when we were all packed and ready to leave. On the drive back to Seattle, we tried to eat our Tim Horton’s donuts in the car as breakfast but like I mentioned before, it was bleugh.

Before we crossed the border, we stopped by the duty-free store for some last minute souvenir shopping.

Then waited in line to cross the border where there was a match on Scruffy’s passport so we had to leave the car and walk into the building. They told us his passport had been reported stolen.

They asked questions and did some investigation during which I tried to make him laugh but it didn’t work. Luckily they let us cross the border, but they kept his passport.

We made plans to eat pizza here since it was on his list and we didn’t have a chance to in the beginning of our trip.

We both ordered beers because apparently beer and pizza is a thing.

We shared the Roasted Seasonal Mushrooms with Truffle Cheese | $19. It was very savory and we kind of wished that we got a pizza that had a tomato sauce base but we finished it all anyway. I really liked having the mushrooms in every bite and surprisingly loved the crust – crispy but soft inside.

I wanted to bring treats to eat on the plane or to take back home and since this was next door, it was perfect.

French Macaron [flourless lemon lavender] | $1.75 wasn’t that great.

Chocolate Chunk Cookie | $2.75 was so huge and was chewy, just how I like it.

Dog Treats [peanut butter & bacon] | $0.75 each – our pups gobbled it up … but I think they gobble everything up.

He gassed up the car while I cashed in my lotto. Then we returned our car and took and Uber to the airport.

When we almost got to the security line, he realized he lost his drivers license and having his passport taken up didn’t help. Luckily he had his old college id and credit cards and after some questions and a body search, we were on our way.

Nothing was going right that day and since we got to the airport early, we went to this restaurant.

We shared a Blue Moon.

And some nachos – bleugh.

We finally boarded but had to sit separately since we forgot to check in the day before. When we were almost back at his house, we realized our backpack was left on the bus that takes us from the airport to where our car was parked but decided to get it the next day since nothing very expensive was in there.

The next day, he woke up early to fill in forms for his driver’s license and went online to “stand in line” virtually so we didn’t have to spend so much time at the center. Once we finished, we drove back to the airport parking place to grab my backpack.

Then we had lunch of drinks with chips and dip and Mexican food. They have my favourite green sauce!

When he was about to take me home, I realized I left my house keys on his desk back at his house. What else can go wrong, right? Luckily, Mum worked five minutes from my house so we didn’t have to go back to his place.

Overall, I had a great trip and we both learned more about one another. I haven’t scared him away just yet and he still wants to vacation with me. We’ve already booked tickets to Denver in December. Eeep! First time seeing snow for me.
