I did reserve a hotel for two nights at least... that is changeable/refundable. |

The internet tells me the only night market near city centre is Chinatown which was cancelled for the 2018 season. Then there's Richmond near the airport or Shipyards in North Vancouver.

Richmond Night Market is far more legit than the others and very accessible. It's what every local refers to when they say Night Market. Decen.t food and..... Uh... Socks, iPhone covers and Korean circle lenses if you're into that. Really, everyone just goes for the food.
I could very well be interested in that.:;) (Yes, I still obtain physical media.) |
Hello all!
Just a quick update to let everyone know I haven't forgotten about things! I know I said I'd have an Eventbrite registration out ages ago, but I ran into a bit of a hiccup ... life, it just gets in the way some days. Should be good to go in by mid-week. I have 2 flights reserved for 2:30pm on Saturday (15th) - in an interesting twist, they will both be departing at the same time! (Not sure if that means wing-to-wing flying or opposite flight paths? Yes, I could have asked, but I like surprises.) Also the walking tours have been booked for 9:30/10am on Saturday and Sunday (2-ish hours each). If there are over 25 people we will likely have to split in 2 groups so everyone can hear what's going on (no microphones used), but I'll figure that out once the Eventbrite is up. |

The question I ask of Smiley90 is: No, not everyone. What else does that include? Japanese idol image DVDs? :-:

I seem to recall that there were two distinct tour routes, but I didn’t pay too much attention to which plane was assigned to which or the direction that each went after takeoff |
Fingers crossed that the awful smoke we have here right now is gone or significantly reduced for the 'Do'.
I'd post pix, but let's just say there wouldn't be many sights to see today. |

Having said that, I can still hear HA planes taking off in Coal Harbour (my office is three blocks away), so I guess there's enough viz to fly VFR.
@nomadic.relief seems pretty organized to me - maybe she already has the appropriate weather reserved for the 'Do'. ;) |
I'm out now, family event that same weekend. I just cancelled my flight. If anyone wants it CX F JFK-YVR Thursday September 13th has gone back into availability
