There’s one whole arm of SFO that’s empty. Awesome.

There is not a single Esbit tab anywhere in Victoria. Not even in the MEC, which is strategically located across the street from Monty’s. Capital Iron came the closest with Coghlan’s fuel tabs–which I bought out of desperation since I’ve only ever used their waterproof matches which are unfortunately also fire proof–and a helpful manger who had some advice about the West Coast Trail.
Saw a flyer for Paul Devro who was playing that night. Tempting, but the bus left at 6:30 the next morning While waiting for Sue (hostel owner) to put my bags in storage I heard a girl say that Fleet Foxes were also playing that night. Note: in Victoria Wednesday night is party night.
