Vancouver International Airport, Canada's second largest airport, is also the second busiest international airport. A variety of lounges, restaurants and service facilities are relatively complete, especially ice wine is worth buying, as a hand letter. The airport is very large, the security check time is slightly longer, pay attention to reserve more time, the indoor space is more spacious and bright, and the service is also good. It is one of the best airports in North America. In 2007 and 2010, it won the SKYTRAX North America Best Airport Award.

Restaurants and laundry nearby!

Other halls and facilities are still under construction. Visiting time: 30 minutes, unless you participate in activities, which may take longer. Cost: Free Note: 1. When taking the bus in Vancouver, pull the yellow cord or press the red button on the handle before getting off, so the driver knows to stop; if no one pulls the cord and there's no one at the stop, the driver will continue driving without stopping (to save time and energy); 2. In Vancouver, the back door of the bus does not open automatically; you need to push the door for it to open, while the driver will open the front door; 3. After entering the bus through the front door, there is a red line on the floor. Everyone should stand behind the red line to avoid obstructing the driver's view; 4. In the downtown area of Vancouver, there are buses with longer carriages, especially on Broadway Street. For such buses, you can board through the front, middle, or back doors, and there are devices for swiping transit cards. If you are buying a ticket on the bus, it is best to board from the front door; 5. Pay with coins next to the driver at the front door to buy a ticket, no change is given, so it's best to prepare the exact change in advance; 6. The most convenient method is to buy a Compass Card, which is a transit card that allows direct transfers to buses, SkyTrain (light rail), and SeaBus. The deposit is $6 CAD, and you can top it up in advance. 7. All buses charge for one zone; the SkyTrain has 1, 2, or 3 zones; the SeaBus has 1 or 2 zones. 8.

Minna Park: Catch the last petals and enjoy the cool weekend

🌸 Hey guys, I recently went to Minna Park to catch those disappearing cherry blossoms. You know, every time spring comes, my heart can't help but float with those petals. 🌳 Walking on the small path in the park, it feels like the whole world has become particularly quiet. Only the sound of the breeze brushing past the petals and my own 'thumping' heartbeat are left. 🌸 Those cherry blossoms seem to tell me that spring really came. 🐰 There are also many little rabbits bouncing around in the park, they seem to be cheering for this short spring. I sat on the grass, watching them play, and felt that the whole world had become particularly beautiful. 🌞 The weather this weekend was really great, neither cold nor hot. It's that kind of just right coolness that makes people feel relaxed in body and mind. I lay on the grass, watching the white clouds floating in the sky, and felt as if I had also blended into this beautiful nature. 🥂 If you have the chance, you must go to Minna Park to see those cherry blossoms. Remember, go with a good mood! So, see you next time~ 👋

Discovering the YVR Airport

So much to see walking around the YVR airport, definitely take the time to appreciate the local art displayed. Airports tend to be stressful and sterile places, purely just for your transit but Vancouver is a beautiful place to take in when heading to your next destination.

##mammashark picking up my kiddo at the airport. mind you he is 16 years old and was like REALLLY MOM !! hehehehe YOLO van airport ROCKS!!

SIN to YVR, via LAX...

#yvr #lax avoid overnight transfer@LAX, you will need to collect yr luggage and wait 1 hr + for the immigration check pt, and afterwards, wait until 4am which when the check in counter and custom open.

I traveled between Vancouver Canada and Tokyo Japan with Japan airlines who provided some very high quality service throughout the flight from check-in to disembarkation it was a great pleasure to fly with this company who also provided very good economy class food and other companies should follow suit. Wonderful service and very friendly cabin crew.wow

Miserable cat

Surprised to find a miserable cat hiding under my car one day before getting into my car. It seems scary about the people outside and might also because of the cold weather in Richmond, BC. Initially I had no idea what to do, but after making some noise, it finally came out of my car. It quickly ran away and I got no chance to give it a hug. Too bad!
