Note from Vancouver
Since I am being lazy, this is a paste of the email I have just sent.
Just a quick note to say Hi and that I have arrived in Vancouver OK. The stop over in Taipei was a good break - the hotel was amazing and backed onto a Golf Course, which has seen the likes of Jack Niklaus.....
Anyways, I am here. I start work on the 7th of May at Lake Louise.
The first thing I did was lose my return flight coupons (dated 6 months from now) whilst going through Customs and getting my work Visa. So I guess it looks like I am not coming back (just kidding, but I am going to have to sort it out on Monday down at the airline office in Vancouver).
After panicking and crying from exhaustion because no one was very helpful about it, I had the information desk ring the airline for me and they told me to go in and have them re printed, so probably shouldn't panic too much. What makes it a pain is there are two airlines I am going to have to deal with about it.
The bus didn't drop me off at the hotel either....I had to walk down the street and around a corner and the driver laughed when he saw what hotel I was going to on the coupon.....not a good sign before I get there, but it seems good, the staff are friendly and it is in a central spot and clean so can't complain too much.
I will write more later when I have some more news. This was really just a quick g'day to say I am still alive and kicking.
Hope you are all well.
