This morning saw the squad enjoy a much needed lie-in following another handsome victory and a good night of celebration. At about 11am the tour party checked out of the Queen Victoria Hotel, with some regret as many had enjoyed the town a great deal - the friendly locals, laid back pace and excellent array of bars & restaurants were going to be missed as The Terriers headed to the big city!
After boarding the ferry to Vancouver it was time for some internal competition - at the All-You-Can-Eat Buffet! Almost all the players and a few of the management & coaching staff made their way to the Pacific Lounge with the intention of eating for 90 minutes.
Sadly despite some sterling performances from Ryan 'Buzz' Burrows, Danny 'Hightower' Chamberlain and others, a quick start soon put paid to a number of the squad - some even having to find a quiet corner and sleep off the effects. Experience soon told as the last men eating were some of the more mature members of the travelling group. All of this did mean that the planned group dinner that evening needed to be postponed and that the Howard Johnson Hotel had a rather sleepy rugby group to deal with on check-in. That evening, after a couple hours of much needed rest it was time for the group to explore their surroundings in the heart of Vancouver.
