today we had a nice windy walk into the city centre. Di and I both had our nails done, they look so nice. Then lunch and catch up with the lovely Jac Wheadon! Some lovely things to buy here but I resisted or else I won'y be able to fit the baby polar bear in!

6 september

A sleep in and relaxing morning, then filling out heaps of online stuff to get on the cruise and re arranging the suit case. Di's hubby drove us to the Park RoyalAirport hotel (very nice!)this arvo.

We had some dinner, a nice drink in the bar (G&T of course) and have retired to our room to relax and have a cuppa. I of course will be praying to who ever for smooth flying tomorrow, no more of these gale force winds please!

Anyway time for a cuppa and a little choccy!

Sept 7

finally on the way, well after 3 hour delay at the airport, then a nightmare flight in and out of Sydney and yes I got a very severe case of teretts! People were throwing up! The rest of the flight was fairly smooth but neither Di or I got much sleep. At La we had to go through customs and get finger printed, then pick up our bags, go though immigration, then across the airport to Canadian airlines! Luckily that flight was late too or we would have to wait for another flight!

We were on a small plane to Vancouver but it was a beautiful flight. The scenery was spectacular, snow capped mountains , a volcano (Mt Helena) and lots of beautiful lakes.

Vancouver airport is beautiful as well, lots of timber and native art.
