Heyya!!!! so welcome to Canada! i have been here for 2 days now! unfortunately i didn't take my lap top so i have limited use to the computer since i'm always on adventures and don't always have assess to the net!! But every few days i will def add to my blog...
So i finally made it to Canada with some little complications on the way! i flyed on the new plane, the A380 air! ummmm it was a little let down since everyone has been raving about it!! its still the same plane with hardly no leg space but it is huge cause its double decker!!
But we were on the plane waiting 3 hours before we flew headed for the USA!!! there was an engineering problem so we waited and waited all up for 3 hours! the flight finally took of and then it was all exciting!!!! L.A here i come!!! the flight to L.A was loooooong and quite boring at some stages cause all the movies i liked i watched in the first 8 hours! and it was a 16 hour trip HAHAHA!!! but a little fun thing, cause i have always wanted to be a a air hostess! it was fun seeing how they do there job and thinking how cool it would be to work with an airline!! i love the uniform QANTAS flight attendants wear!! i was always interested to know what shoes i'd need for a job like that! and now i know!!!!
So i finally reached L.A!!!! WOW!!! i have landed on U.S.A soil!!! my dream has come true!!! so i missed my connection flight to CANADA because of the delay outts sydney! so i waiting in L.A airport for around 6 hours!!! its a long time to sit when u have been sitting for 16 hours so i was gonna take a bus out to L.A city but with not knowing where to actually go i thought it would be better just to hang around the airport!! but i will get to expereince L.A when i return there after canada!
So the L.A airport is crazy!! its mostly all under construction/renovation!!!! so its crazyness there!! but i did manage to find a maccas and try a cheese burger meal!! GROOOOOOSSSSSSS!!
we have much better cows and cooks in aussie BELIEVE ME!!!! then i just looked at all the shops that were open amoung the renovations been done! Then it was time to go through the departure lounge to fly off to Canada!!! that 6 hours went quickly actually!!!
i was also trying to let my friend know in canada that i won't be on the flight that the details i gave her said! so it was quite stresful trying to call her from the USA!! to let her know i am gonna be late! finally just before i boarded the plane to canada i worked out the national code for canada to text my friend so i was relieved then!!!
from L.A to canada is only a 2 and half hour flight!!! it was relaxing and lovely service!!! with ALASKA airways!!!
i got to my friends house around 10 at night!!! and was completely tired!!! but my friends brother that i also know was there to greet me!!! it was so lovely to see my friends again after soooooo many years!! so we had kiwi lime pie!!! it was nice very north american i think!! but it was lovely kinda tasted like cheese cake! then i went to bed!!
NOW!!!!
day one!!! i woke up and felt really tired but thought i would wake up and just press through it to get used to the time here!!! So in the morning we went to the store i just had to see called "WALL MART" yay!!!! it was amazingly just like big w!!!! lol.... but i have a photo of me standing outside i!!! then i learnt about something so cool!! Briannas mum and sister came over and took me on a Vancouver tour to the mountains!!!! SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!! while brianna had to work, we went to a place called the Dykes it sounds like bikes with a d!!! its a trail that leads u around mountains and lakes!!! SO awesome it really blew my hair back and just amazed me with all the mountains and wildlife!!!!
Then had dinner with my friend geordy!!! He is lovely and i was in south afica with him, he was actually in my outreach team! so had a good catch up/dinner with him and his/briannas family!! i told them that drop bears in aussie a real and we do eat guinni pig!!!!!! HAHAHA they believed me!!!!! then at night i went on a awesome drive through Vancouver city centre!!!!! its a real lovely city! oneday we are gonna hang out for the day there but last night drove through many diverse parts of the city, like the gay community street! the heaps expensive shopping strip!! called robson street! to the dangerous area when we locked our doors! that sure made me feel real good HAHAHA!!!!
then lastly this is awesome!!!! we went to a look out over the city! and guess what i saw?????
RACOONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so close and and so cute! now that really made me see i was overseas in CANADA!!! i had my camera but it died so we are gonna go back there when my camera was charged to take photos of the little racoons!!! they were walking past me into the bush and i wanted them to come out so started throwing little pepple rocks into the bush!!! my friends were laughing crazy warning me they might come out and bite me!!!
so i stopped!!!
