SSAB - November 18, 2024
Canadalanded! How was the flight? Korean Air… movie selection was a little… well, very Korean. Watched Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning. Had the whole row to myself!
Eight hour forty three minutes total flight time.
Vancouver Aquarium with the family… Unionpay did NOT work.
Grey Cup on Sunday, Winnipeg Blue Bombers lost 41 to 22 or something. Brutal. Jonas Brothers? Have you heard of them? Popular in Canada apparently.
Monday out on the town, artsy area, downtown, Granville and… Hastings. Wow.
