Today I finish the rest of my photos from Peace Arch Border Crossing between Surrey, BC and Blaine, WA. The photos from Peace Arch are split into 2 parts. At Peace Arch Park, you are free to walk between the 2 countries. No restrictions, but the area is patrolled by quite a lot of border agents. One of the officers on the US side actually came to have a chat with us at the parking lot after I was done with my photos. He was very friendly about it and finished up the chat in around a minute.
Message from the Photographer: Happy Valentine's Day! :) Hope you all have a nice day.
This was one of the most confusing things I had to deal with while in Canada. My parents and I have no concept what km/h is. LOL
