Those are all good things! I'll bet you are getting excited -- not long to go now, eh? :)

What type of things are you trying to sell?

Your taking a bus + ferry to Vancouver, and not a flight? I always seem to do the tiny lil plane from Vic to Van. I love the view from that one.

What are you changing in your flight? You going straight to Japan from Vancouver, or ya stopping somewhere like LA?

Need a hand selling anything?

I like that the bus takes me right to the airport, since I don't know my way around Vancouver taking the bus seemed to be a good idea. Also If I leave on the Monday, I need to be on the 6:00Am to get there to check in and all that crap...

Also here are some details of my flight:

Vancouver, Vancouver Int'l (YVR)
Mon 08-Oct 2007 13:40 - Terminal M

Tokyo, Narita (NRT)
Tue 09-Oct 2007 15:55 - Terminal 1 10hr15


Return:
Tokyo, Narita (NRT)
Mon 10-Dec 2007 17:10 - Terminal 1

Vancouver, Vancouver Int'l (YVR)
Mon 10-Dec 2007 09:05 - Terminal M 8hr55

So it non stop all the way.

All I am selling are some mags, a table set maybe my T.V. some DVDs and a portable DVD player.
