so here i am 1:34am toronto time but only 11:35pm vancouver time. i would just like to say that today had to be the most longest day of my life.... but we got out suitcases!!!
[REWIND_]
so we get off the plane, my sister and i, [took some amazing pictures of the rockies, and such] all happy that we are finally in vancouver. [this is an amazing city btw] so nadia had to use the bathroom so we decide to make a lil stop off before we got our baggage. 5 minutes later after the peeing we go to the baggage pick up area
-natalia: thats weird our plane was full but the baggage area is kinda empty
-nadia: oh no there were people from halifax on our flight so their baggage was probably already out|
so we wait and wait and wait
-man over the speaker: all those passengers travelling on air canada flight 190 from toronto to vancouver who have not recieved their baggage please report to the baggage counter.
this is like my biggest fear ever! i always get that nervous feeling when i go away and its time to get my bags! can u imagin the horror of not having your bags on vacation! what would you do! so here we are me and my sister, in vancouver without any luggage..
but it was ok cause me, nadia and the luggage man had it all figured out. our bags were on the later flight to vancouver and when they arrived the airport would send everything over to the Hyatt which is where we were staying... or so we thought...
so we jump in a cab, thinking we have everything all figued out we were gonna get our bags at around 6 so all we had to do was check in, dump all our other stuff in our room, go walk around down town, grab something to eat and by the time we got back our bags were gonna be there.
at the Hyatt they had some huge chinese tour group and therefore was over booked. so they kindly asked us if we wouldnt mind going to another hotel for the night and by tomorrow everything would be fixed. my sister before thinking things over thoroughly decides she would be the hero and tells them that we would for sure stay somewhere else. [compleating forgetting that we had given air canada the # for the hyatt to get our bags AND the fact that she has work in the morning and i was just gonna chill in the hotel by myself for the first day but check out at the delta (which is the other hotel they asked us to stay at) is at 12 and check in at the Hyatt is at 4 so basically between the hours of 12-4 i have no where to go, by myself.
so here we were at the Delta with no bags, no way of knowing if they were really going to get to us even though we were assured they would find us, dirty, tired, two hours jet lagged and wanting to get out of the same clothes we had been in all day.
then the miracle happens,
we got our luggage!!! but i am still so tired and tomorrow i dont know what the hell to do tomorrow after i check out.
and to think that this all happened within the first day we were here.
goodnight
