if only i could see vancouver by daylight

I always said I wanted to come to Vancouver and here it is in the dark. I have an hour to go for the next boarding call for my flight. It's 11pm Vancouver time, 2 am Toronto. It's been a long day already and I am ready for my nap! So far, Air Canada hasn't sucked. Key word "yet"? We had a bumpy landing but everything else has been good to go!

Dang I'm boring when I've had no sleep. But at least I can surf the net thanks to Vancouver Airport free WiFi. Next time you hear from me, I'll be in Oz. Pretend I have an accent from now on. It may make the notes more entertaining. :)

ticket booked.... again! countdown is on!

In 7 days I will be on Air Canada flight AC 033. Thankfully a tentative agreement has been met with AC and it's union so hopefully my flight will be fully stocked with happy pilots and flight attendants!

It's a good thing I'm a good sleeper because I've got just over 24 hours flying time to fill up. The selection of in flight entertainment doesn't look all that entertaining. But really, how many movies can I actually sit through?

I hope I have a nice seatmate or it'll be a loooooooooooooong ride! Think a Hugh Jackman look alike may get on there?

Melbourne, here I come.
