Off to British Columbia ...

June 20, 2009 flew outta Toronto Pearson International Airport to Calgary via Air Canada. Half hour late leaving on account workers having to weld in the cargo berth to ensure safety flying. Bumpy ride there. Got in Calgary around 10:30 pm. Switched yet to another smaller plane and got in Vancouver 10:45 pm. Took the airport hotel shuttle bus to Holiday Inn Vancouver Airport around mid-night. When we got there everything was closed, not a single coffee shop was opened. So, we went to McDonald's drive thru, pretended we were driving and got us 2 coffees and breaded fish on buns. Finally knocked off 4:30 am Ontario time.

June 21, 2009 - got up early and we walked over to Aberdeen Centre for Dim Sum. Most places were not opened until 11:00 am. We're in Richmond and majority of people here are Asians; Chinese predominantly and Japanese, Koreans, Filipinos, East Indians. And the houses here each runs over a million minimum. After eating Nikki picked us up around 11 a.m. Got to Nikki and we took off on own as soon as we dropped off our bags there; Nikki had softball until 2:30 pm and we roamed around Main Street and found lotz sporting stores including MEC which is just down the street from Nikki's.
