The Flight Home

We checked in at around 3:30 pm and the airport was very hot. It seemed that the air condition system was not working. It was hot when we checked in. It was still hot when we were in the boarding area.



Except for that, the flight was excellent! It was not delayed in leaving and it arrived on time. The landing as can be expected from PAL pilots was very smooth. The plane was the new 777 which had individual monitors in front of the seat. I was able to sleep about 4 hours or maybe more through the 12 hour flight.

We arrived in Vancouver and went through customs and immigration without problem. Our plan was to take the PCL bus from the airport to the ferry to downtown Victoria. It turns out that PCL has stopped their hourly service and instead runs every other hour.

We took a taxi van to the Tsawassen terminal and when it reached the Swartz Bay terminal, we again took a taxi van home.

All in all, a hectic trip. But thank God, we're back home safe and sound. And our house is also safe.
