In early 2020, I flew from Vancouver to New York in the new Cathay Pacific First Class. 777-300ER First Class cabin several times between Vancouver, New York, and Hong Kong, but It’s a short flight to New York (less than 5 hours), so there isn’t much time to eat and drink. On the Vancouver to New York flight, I ordered the flavourful lemongrass and ginger carrot soup, followed by shrimp wonton noodle soup.
Sandcut Beach, between French Beach Provincial Park and Jordan River, British Columbia, is approximately 1.5 hours drive from Victoria via Highway 14. When you travel to Sandcut Beach from Victoria, consider a stop at the Stick in the Mud coffee house in Sooke, a small town about 30 minutes from Victoria. The Stick in the Mud is an exceptional boutique coffee house, and they roast their coffee beans. After visiting Sandcut Beach, you may want to continue a few km further north to the village of Jordan River.
While in the city, plane to run or walk along the Stanley Park seawall, wander the colourful stalls at Granville Island Market, and shop for the latest fall fashions at Holt Renfrew (Canada’s luxury department store). Be sure to spend time exploring the Kensington and Knightsbridge neighbourhoods because they are a few of London’s special places. * Vancouver International Airport (YVR), is often named Best Airport in North America at the Skytrax World Airport Awards. For London’s Gatwick airport, consider the Gatwick Express train from Gatwick Airport’s South Terminal to London’s Victoria Station.
Kindle e-readers, iPhones, MacBooks, and our Skyroam Solis X WiFi Hotspot (learn why we don’t leave home without our Skyroam here) accompany us when we travel. Using a 70 percent isopropyl alcohol wipe or Clorox Disinfecting Wipes, you may gently wipe the hard, nonporous surfaces of your Apple product, such as the display, keyboard, or other exterior surfaces. I used either a non-bleach disinfecting wipe or a paper towel moistened with rubbing alcohol to clean the high-touch surfaces in our vehicle. I don’t think you can download these books so make sure you have decent (and reasonable) cell connection or use a WiFi hotspot like the Skyroam Solis to listen to the Audible stories during your road trip.
