Parents are in Yangon, Mayanmar.. temp 38C. Got an e-card from friends at their condo in PV.. 29C. My good friend in Vernon who works for VQA had her first patio wine tasting at her house overlooking Okanagan Lake the other day. Sister in Van says there is a lovely, sunny weekend coming up. Fuck it.. I am outa here. Got a rate at the Wall Centre... Time to get out of the snow for a few days!

Looking at that photo, knowing my sister is on one of the sun flights and a cousin is on another makes me feel.....less than happy. And yes I've been to the coast twice this winter, but every flight I have been on other than those two have been north. Time to suck it up and find some snowless locations for a few days. I am driving out to the coast in 2 weeks though to pick up a new bike and maybe get some riding in. But f…it I need some green for a few days. But the thought of fighting through the mass of stinking slobbering slothlike all-inclusive cholesterol laden vacationers makes my skin inch. I can hold on I can hold on. ……

$ 640 return on Transat to PV and $90/ night at the Topicana... fifty bucks in cabs and a couple hun in food & booze.... I'm almost tempted to cancel the trip to Van and do that instead

The Edmonton International Airport is 30 kilometres from the downtown core. So if you have to catch a flight what's the best way to get there? We sent a crew of six CBC journalists to find out. See for yourself which is the fastest, cheapest and easiest way to get to the EIA.
Grew up around 153rd ave and 66 st, and i was definately a trek getting to the airport. Especially strange back then because one of the last buildings you would see was that apartment with the blue roof on calgary trail...after that was fields and darkness, lol. Lit freeway makes a huge difference. It is crazy the amount of development in south edmonton/nisku/leduc.
Had a chance to fly out of Signature flight support facility today, i will love flying out the next few months. The place is palatial. GOA are building their flight centre on the south end of the Aurora building.
Still do not know where the GoC or RCMP are building.
