Retriever was very ambitious in chasing after a ball the owners threw in the water repeatedly for it to go fetch. Alongside a big splash, I think the look on its face here says "I got water up my nose".

This is a dude kayaking with a stylin hat, earphones, and a facial expression that is a product of listening to some tunes I assume. He reminds me of Otto, the bus driver from The Simpsons.

Explore Fort Langley (but don’t forget your wallet)

Fort Langley existed before Vancouver and Victoria were built and functioned as a Hudson's Bay Company trading post in the early 1800s. I was anticipating "walking in the footsteps of British Columbia's early adventurers and exploring the actual site where British Columbia became a colony" until I got to the walls of the fort here and made my own epic discovery that it costs $7.80 to do so.
