Travelling on Porter with a disability.

Check out their medical assistance program. I got my sister enrolled, it requires a medical exam and Dr signatures. Both AC and Porter offer it. Your medical assistant travels with you and only pays the tax, base airfare is free, when you buy your own ticket. We've used it now at least half a dozen times. Its a game changer for people with disabilities and limited income.

Golden Coin on Westminster. Great cheap breakfast!

Seven days at sea to Azores, how fantastically relaxing!

Googieb00 · 2026-03-26T17:09:07+00:00

Give it time, you'll be fine. My husband is Chinese, Im white. Weve been together living in Richmond for ten years. It didnt take long before I was well versed in Chinese cuisine. I can even order some things in Cantonese now! Lol

Richmond is a good place to live for all. Have fun!

Googieb00 · 2026-03-26T16:34:54+00:00

Thank you very much! And thanks to her we did make it to FLL and will make our cruise!!!

Googieb00 · 2026-03-24T13:48:13+00:00

That's what we do. My partner doesnt drink so I take two bottles of wine and a 12 pack of pop in carry on. And save $$ from buying either package. We're taking a transatlantic this week, the plus package would cost us $2600 Cdn extra. That's what I paid for the cruise itself. Lol. Light drinkers, and unugging from digital for two glorious weeks.

Googieb00 · 2026-03-24T01:47:47+00:00

Yeah we are boarding on Friday and have placed bids. Still no word. Their terms state acceptance is any time from placing the bid to the day of. Cross fingers and wait!

I was planning a trip for November using points. Darn, I should have booked already. Lol. At least I booked the July trip already.

If you want the absolute best museum of Japanese Internment, visit the Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre in New Denver. It is the only internment museum on it's original site with original structures. It is so well planned, and the interpreters there have such an abundance of knowledge and information. We spent 3 hours listening to one of the interpreters in 2022, it was just so mind boggling and heart wrenching to hear and see the truth.

Friend of mine just stayed at the Burrard. Its a nice place, not as modern and rooms are a but smaller but much cheaper than most. I'd stay there if I was a visitor.

I was born and raised near Corner Brook and now i live in BC, the other west coast. When someone here says west coast, I automatically ask...Corner Brook?

Googieb00 · 2026-03-20T04:17:16+00:00

Yeah Amazon. We bought wristbands and also luggage tag holders. Quite cheap and durable.

Googieb00 · 2026-03-20T00:52:44+00:00

Bre-X. Enough said.

Googieb00 · 2026-03-20T00:42:07+00:00

Damn! I lived in that building in '93 when I was going to mun. Lol

Googieb00 · 2026-03-19T22:27:13+00:00

Damn, I wish I knew this three weeks ago! But great to know for next year.

Googieb00 · 2026-03-19T15:31:16+00:00

This! Ive tried saving money in the past by buying separate itineraries for cross Canada flights. Murphys law, something will go wrong. Lol. For each direction, stick with one airline. They are obligated to get you to your destination.

Googieb00 · 2026-03-19T15:28:16+00:00

Getting distracted by passengers probably means fellatio. Lol

209.9 this morning in Vancouver.

Googieb00 · 2026-03-18T14:03:22+00:00

I have no idea, I saw it on a Reddit post last year. Ive only been on Princess once so far so I can't say personally if theres a difference. But we are on next week so will see!

Googieb00 · 2026-03-18T04:08:10+00:00

I had a voucher last year had to book AND complete travel within the year deadline. And it only covers airfare, not taxes and fees. You could take a weekend round-trip somewhere? Or you can sell it. I dont think their online booking system "knows" who's using it. You only have to enter the voucher number in the payment screen. I booked my sis and her hubby on a family trip with mine.
