Paddington, UK
Wow! I can hardly believe I am here in London! We had a very smooth direct flight - it was a little surreal, though. We board a plane in Vancouver - have a flawless take off, soaring up above the clouds, then we sit in our seats for 10 hours with a view of fluffly clouds beneath us. There was no reall sensation of moving, so by the time we got off the plane in London, the vegetation was so similar to Vancouver that it really didn't feel like we had gone anywhere ...
