A Mystery Trip

 Hullo!! Today we are packing our bags and suitcases because we are going on a trip!

We had to get up ridiculously early...

And drive to the airport, where we left the car for a friend to come and get later... which means we are going to be gone for a while!

We got on the little plane and the sun wasn't even up yet!

But it was a lovely flight over the strait...

Once at Vancouver airport, the first order of business was breakfast. A little bear needs to be kept fueled otherwise things go sideways!

That's better! Now... any idea where we are going??

You will never guess...

We are on a big plane!! And got an emergency exit seat with more legroom!

And landed... where?? It's obviously a FIFA host city...

Now can you guess??

Yes!! It's Toronto!! But we aren't staying here...

We are just catching a connecting flight to our final destination. What with all the layovers, this will be a 14 hour trip...

We could have flown to London in less time... hmph!

We arrived in the pitch dark after midnight and caught a taxi to our hotel...

Sorry, this little bear is exhaustipated... time to sleep... more adventuring in the next post.

  1. A long trip indeed. Did you end up on Japan or Sydney?

  2. The roommate was curious, why no ferry ride to YVR?

    1. Would have had to spend the night beforehand to catch the Vancouver-Toronto leg. Gets expensive too. We usually only do that for the Mexico trips when our flight leaves at 7 or 8 am and a connecting flight from home is cutting it way too close. Plus those are with different airlines... whereas this flight was all Air Canada.

  3. I think I know which trip this is!!!!! It's to the other side of Canada altogether!!!!! (Exhaustipated is a good word isn't it??! It means "too tired to give a sh*t"!!)
