Hi Ruth

That's helpful to know, thanks.

Having never been on a holiday quite like this before, I must admit I'm at a bit of a loss as to what clothes to take!  I know everyone says layers but at this rate, I'm going to end taking 5 suitcases! 😂  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I did upgrade on the train, so it's gold all way for me!  I got a Post Office prepaid travel card and have loaded it up.  Will also take some Canadian 💵

Still can't decide whether or not to do the Butchart Gardens trip as I am no Charlie Dimmock!!

Hi Eileen

I'm going! Started packing today and already have a feeling I'm taking way too much stuff!  

I'm doing all of the excursions apart from the Icefields and Victoria (which I'll more than likely book when I'm there depending on availability of course!).

See you in the Heathrow Lounge on Sat.  5 more sleeps... 😊😊

I'm here already. Staying overnight at Heathrow. Packing has been hideous hope I've got it right. Looks like pleasant weather with a drop of rain in Vancouver. See you all tomorrow.
