Travel Planning - Seaplane Edition!

[fauxklore]

I discovered something wonderful for my upcoming trip to Western Canada.

I'm going to go to Victoria for a couple of days after the Vancouver Olympics package and before the train to Jasper. And Air Canada is, as usual, bloody expensive.

It turns out that it is actually not any more expensive to take a seaplane. I have wanted to ride in a seaplane since I was about 4, since there used to be a seaplane dock in my home town. I haven't made the reservations yet, but I think I'll take the bus / ferry one way and the seaplane the other. How cool is that?

Once I make those reservations and book the dog sledding trip from Jasper, I'll have all the logistics sorted. Then I can start planning the next vacation.

Ah, Vancouver and Victoria... my favorite part of the world. I've never done the seaplane thing, but they've always looked fun. I like the ferry, though. Very pretty ride past a bunch of islands. Sounds like a fun trip!
