It was an exhausting trip because we would like to go as many places as we could when we were in British Columbia. It took us a lot of time to refine our trip plan over and over again to make the best use of our time. We traveled more than 3000 miles.

I am looking forward to surviving the plane trip, and enjoying the holiday. Ben Well here we are at the San Francisco International Airport. Our plane leaves in another 90 minutes so we finally have a bit of time to stretch our legs and relax before catching the Alaska Airlines flight up to Seattle. I seem to have conquered my well known fear of flying - I didn't even grab for Roses arm when the turbulance came. My only problem was being s...
