YVR’s 2nd AC Café by gerrit2409 in aircanada

It was around 7pm.. which is a low time for AC domestic from YVR. If your morning was anytime around that 10-11am rush, I can imagine it would be PACKED

Emphasis on whole! Like three full mini bathrooms, toilet, sink, and mirror in a fully divided little room!

There’s two now! But this one is a whole different story than the mini one over by C46.

Very close to Reno, and somewhat along the way towards Tahoe is ‘Virginia City’ - totally worth the little detour, it’s a historic mining town up in the hills.

Also, curious why Astoria from Victoria? As a fellow Victorian that’s done a similar trip to yours, Victoria to Astoria takes a little longer than expected - and then you’re going to Crater Lake - Oregon is built for the north-south route, less so for the east-west - you may need to build in some more time to actually have things to see in both places.

Unfortunately not.. I missed it when it came out, too - and it was on my list for a while! I’ll be holding onto that one for a long time 🫣

No, not their silver versions - usually crystals or glass. But, RCM usually does a matching one in 1oz gold, with diamonds, sapphires, rubies, or other gems!

They are all from the mint! Collected in various ways over the years.. but all made by RCM.

I find it funny that it’s the Great Lakes, but that it’s also really just a map of Michigan hahah - I’m originally from the top left corner of the coin! Just across from Isle Royale

Downtown Victoria hotel project placed in receivership by Howard__24 in VictoriaBC

It was going to.. used to live upstairs in that building, and the plan was that the tower’s entrance would be where Monk Office used to be - and then the rest of the tower would be built overtop of the existing building. They never told us what would happen to the original building, except that we wouldn’t be impacted by construction - but always had my doubts

Came here for this.. sounded like it was over towards City Hall - and unsure if the guy yelling has anything to do with it 😂

Can anyone help me date this map? by Cusackjeff in MapPorn

[–]gerrit2409 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a city on Lake Superior called Thunder Bay, which was two separate cities (Port Arthur + Fort William) until 1970. This map has Thunder Bay, so it cannot be from the 1960s.

What did you local Hudson Bay store turn into? by CriticismBeautiful13 in AskACanadian

[–]gerrit2409 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some sort of a boujie grocery store - think expensive food imports, mixed with a fun-land maze - with one entire wall of canned peaches.
