Last night was awesome! I slept at Glenora Farm, that was all I needed.. I realized today was Sunday so I decided to relax just a little bit. We hd breakfast at 9am and than I had some time to talk with everyone on skype and facebook. And until noon I was working and relaxing.

I didn't have time to wash my cothes so I had to put everything dirty and wet, but the day was nice I was really thinking it would be dry soon! I also did one very smart move, I changed the location of my tent in the backpack. Before it was hanging at the bottom so I changed it and now it's hangind in the front, at the level of the sleeping bag. Small change? Absolutely no! the center of weight went up and as a result most of the weight is now on my hips. The difference is really important because my heels hurts so much and the backpack did even worst!

I was walking on Indian Road from Glenora Farm until I arrived to Duncan, small city, I think no more than 8000 people lives there. But in the center it was really nice, full of people. I was walking and walking, looking for some good place to eat and I found a gas sstation! As you know it's really good because you can find everything there, starting from engine oil, all sort of medicine, food. Of course I didn't need that, but it feels relaxing. I had a few slices of pizza, it was a half of the pizza and one portion of chicken. Tasty, hot and it gave me power to continue walking. The city was easy, than I found a Cowichan Valley Trail. I had to change my planss before because the trail was turning to Cowichan Lake and than returning in north Duncan.

I met a lot of people there, they wanted to take a photo with me and I gave them my stickers. Suddenly the trail ended, at the intersection there was a fence and that's it. No idea where to go. I decided to turn right and go to the nearest road. I took a look at mmy phone's GPS and I decided to continue a few blocks and than on a smaller highway (not a Trans Canada One, I hope Island Hwy???) I was walking to the rails. I dont know it was the best idea, the rails go through a forest and it's always the shortest way, but it's difficult to walk, every step is different. After few hunddreds meters feet hurts.

It was getting dark, I was afraid the rails are not abandoned. I was talking in Victoria about some abandoned rails, but was it here or somewhere else? I had to look back just in case. So it was dark and I was walking, I had a very strong lights and it was really helpfull, I could see eveyrting. Once I was walking below Trans Canada Highway and than through Indian Reservate. Absolutely no difference in the dark. I was walking through a forest and suddenly... I found myself in the middle of a big lake! There was water on my left and right and rails just in the middle. It was dark, it was late, I was tired and I was afraid at that time, I couldn't camp there. Absolutely no place on both sides. Far away I saw some lights, probably from a street and I was heading there.

When I got to the light, it was some small street with houses. But I saw people were really scary there, I don't know why. Fog appeared and it was getting too dangerous to walk, I decided to camp and I knew that in a moment I should be safe!!

I found some spot in a forest, really close to the street, I put my tent. I had some troubles to pin it to the ground as it was really hard, maybe a concrete below the ground?? Something unusual. than I saw a car passing by, even 2 cars, some people with flash lights were looking for...me!

Just for safety I stepped out and went toward the cars, they were quite far away but people saw me. "cars stopped next to me: "Are you the man we are looking for??" I said "probably yes". And it was police! That moment I was scary, but I said ok, if anything I will be safe. They asked who am I, what am I doing etc. When I explained eveyrhing that I am walking across Canada, I am well prepared, I am not on drugs or something,you know, it tooks like 15 min maybe more. At the end I asked one of them about water, and he gave me everything he had! Almost 1 liter of drinkable water! Wow! Police officers are also humans!

I had macaroni with cheese, really good after that long day. I was a little bit scary to sleep in this area, but too tired to go away. The night was painfull, I couldn't sleep because of my legs...
