  August 19, 2022 - August 26, 2022 What a treat to fly from Waterloo, avoiding all the turmoil at Toronto International Airport. A new airline, Flair, now offers flights directly from Waterloo Airport (formerly known as Breslau) to Vancouver. Five hours in the air and we were there. We left just as the sun was setting and we followed the sunset all the way across Canada. It was a delight. As we landed in Vancouver, darkness descended and the sun disappeared. We quickly retrieved our luggage and picked up our rental car. We were soon on our way to our hotel. Check in was easy and we were comfortably installed by about 11 pm.

Greetings to all of you, It is with great pleasure that we are once again leaving home for an extended trip following a hiatus of 2 1/2 years. We would like to invite you to accompany us on this adventure as we explore the beautiful province of British Columbia. We are flying to Vancouver (a direct flight from Waterloo) late in the day on Friday, August 19 and we will return home on Friday, September 30. That gives us six full weeks to travel around British Columbia on the mainland, on islands, on ferries and experience both remote parts of the province as well as familiar ones. You have been part of our communication system for one of more blogs in the past. We have maintained the list of potential readers and invite you once again to be an armchair traveller while we are exploring. If you prefer not to accompany us in this way, please send me a quick email (robinson.donna@ymail.com). No offence taken.  For those of you who wish to continue, fasten your seatbelts ... it is go...
