January-March - I watched all 3 seasons at least 10 times. Stopping and zooming and rewinding to catch any little clues as to the locations the show was filmed.
Final Result - A Psych blast!!!!
March 15th - 18th 2010
Just as we crossed the border our phones went crazy saying we were roaming ect... We called our phone company and they told us they didn't have ANY international plans for Canada. SERIOUSLY?! With out our phones we had no GPS. So off to the store to get a map and old school it...
We headed to the Langley area of BC.
Our first stop was the drive in movie theater where Shawn's mom was held hostage in a car.
It is still up and running but only on the weekends in the Spring so we didn't get to catch a flick.Our next stop - Santa Barbara National Savings bank where Gus was held hostage.
We were STARVING by this time so we headed to a great place to get burgers and strawberry shakes!
The actual Red Robin the Treasure Hunting episode with Shawn's uncle was filmed!Our condo was in Vancouver so we took surface streets to get there so we could pass other Psych landmarks -
The diner where Ms Dwyer was chained to the sign.
The hotel the bank robbers on parole were staying in Woman Seeking Dead Husband - Smokers Okay, No Pets (Season 1 Episode 4)
We checked into our condo and set out the next day's plans.
First stop all the sites in Vancouver BC.
The court house in Cloudy...Chance of Murder (Seas. 1 Eps. 12)
They had this HUGE tv set up for the Olympics stuff they still had going on as the Paralympics were still there.
There is an area just out of down town Vancouver that is home to filming sites to a bunch of episodes. It was freezing and pouring down rain otherwise we would have found a way in to the area. It was all gated off everywhere.
The horse track in And Down the Stretch Comes Murder (seas. 2 eps. 5)
The amusement park and the park area during the motorcycle chase in Daredevils
(seas. 3 eps. 3)
The roller rink in Talk Derby to Me (seas. 3 eps. 7)
The field and stairs Juliette and Lassiter run across in season 4's finale
This last area was under construction to build a new soccer stadium! It was a general sports field but they are making it into a permanent playing field and bringing the chairs from the Olympic venues for seating!

We stopped for lunch in hopes of some Fries Cuatro Queso Dos Fritos. Apparently they don't have that on the menu. The food was fantastic though!!
After lunch we tried to check ourselves into an Insane Asylum - ok so not really but the person taking our picture probably thought we should be in one....
Hoped to catch a football game
Saw the planets and the Universe
Our last full day took us to Crescent Beach and White rock where a majority of the show is filmed.
On our way down we stopped to slide down a firehouse pole (I WISH!!!!)
CRESCENT BEACH
We stopped by THE house. And it does indeed face the ocean. We asked a passerby to take our picture and they were thinking we wanted our picture with the ocean in the back ground. They were quite confused when we said we wanted it with the house!
