I made it to Vancouver- Well Richmond

Hell everyone, less than 20 hours left (as of this writing) until I fly out.
This still seems like a dream...but this is really happening just one more sleep.

Here what has happened so far...
After I got in to Victoria I left the bus terminal and headed up to the Accent Inns, picked up my last pay stub and separation slip and mentioned that I didn't have a place to stay so a meeting room wasn't cleaned( but the bed and bathroom was ok) so I left my bags at the hotel and headed off to curious comics to meet with a few friends of mine.
One of my friends offered to have a some real sushi., which was really good and we talked about sushi bars and different places in Toyko to eat and sleep.
After that I was dropped off at the hotel and tried the wireless there with no luck.

So I watched some free TV and went to sleep, the next morning I here a light rapping on the door which woke me up. I got dressed and left my room about 8:30 or so and left to go drop off some stuff off at the U-Haul where I have my storage.

When proceeded to head over to wal-mart to return some stuff. As I was walking it stated to rain lightly, which was no big deal since I got my coat from the storage unit...I have forgot it while I was in Comox and I desperately needed it.

Then I headed back to Accent to pick up my suitcase and head off to catch the no. 8 bus. While waiting for the bus it pored and I got soaked, so did my bags( Luck that everything is still in working order), I got on the bus and headed over to curious comics again to see another friend I only stayed there for half an hour and caught the no.4 @ 1pm to downtown and got to the bus depot around 1:25 and waited for the 1:45 bus to the Vancouver Airport...in Richmond...
The bus took off around 1:45 and got to the ferrie terminal around 2:30pm just in time for the 3pm sailing. The ferrie ride from Swartz Bay to Tsawwassen, the spirit of Vancouver Island, after getting off the bus I walked up to the 5th deck from the 2nd and around the 5th deck for a while and headed up to the 6th deck where there where flat screen Tvs one had football and kids shows out of the two which do you think I wanted to watch?
Ya the Kids cartoons...it was simpled shape, colourful, and a bit chunky. As I watched this one part I was thinking to myself that I need to visit the Ghibli Museum, I think that is a perfect spot for anime, films fans and appsaring animators.
I was also playing a bit of Phoenix Right: Ace Attorney Justice for all, had some food and watched the islands pass buy.

Around 4:15pm I headed back down to the bus there was two people a head of me. Everyone was loaded on the bus and it was about 15 to 20 mins later we had docked and where loaded off.
The last time I was in Vancouver, buy myself was about 4 years ago, when I was working at a youth center in Courtenay called Connections Youth Center, but they are long gone, had there funding cut and the youth center died, the place that is was last in is a veterinary clinic. The website has died and it's domain name up for sale. The last time I had spend a good deal of time in the Comox valley, it seemed that everything was funded by the government/people was dieing out, But I digress.

The bus arrived at the Airport around 5:20pm, was unloaded and I entered the Airport. I walked around I wandered around to Airport for a bit and found a phone that directly connects to any Hotel in the area. I Called Accent Inns and asked when the next shuttle was running, I was lucky there was one already there. I went out side and I didn't see it there I was on the upper part and it was on the lover part, I saw the shuttle and raced down to the lower part and I had just missed it. So I was back on the phone and sure enough I saw it again and hopped on.

I was a nice relaxing ride, I got to the hotel and I was a sweet looking hotel, I would stay there again, they have a work out room and hot tub and a guest landry.
I got the key to the room (266) and it was really nice, (I have some pictures of it) a King sized bed, just me sleeping in there alone it feels so big. I unpacked my suit case, (only a few clothes where a bit wet) set aside some clothes and plugged in my ipod, laptop, and DS, since all of them where getting low on power.
I searched for wi-fi and there are two access points I can connect to, then I took a shower. Ah that felt good...Watched some tv and wandered around to get something to eat. I don't remember if had ever gone to IHOP (International house of Pancakes) so I tried the IHOP Cheeseburger and the sampler of appetizers, it was good I want to go there for breakfast have what they are famous for...Pancakes.
After I left and headed back to my room I watched more Tv and stated this post(which I am continuing as of 4am the 8th).

Wow that is a a looooooooooooooong post I I'll post later.
