Hey everyone
Last weekend in Gibsons, BC. Around 8:45 pm I just returned from a hiking trip on Mt. Tetrahedron up the coast by Port Mellon. Driving in to town, just past the Molly's reach corner, I saw TWO very nice Delicas in the space of 30 seconds. The first was a white 92 or maybe 93 going westbound. The other was a Chamonix parked on the south side of the same street across from an ice cream shop. Who are the lucky owners?!?
The first encounter I had with one of these beasts was in its native environment - Hakuba, Japan in april this year. Since coming back home I have seen a few on the streets of Vancouver. But this was the first chance I had so see one up close since then. I spent so long cirling around the chamonix admiring it that I almost missed the ferry...
someday I will own one of these!
