Lol, guess my VPN works!

But the funny thing is, I was in Canada!

I think I have shared on here before we hooked a family cruise in Alaska from September 4th to 11th from Seward Alaska to Vancouver Canada.

We left on August 30th and at the time we had no idea that a hurricane was coming. We spent a few glorious days in Denali and Kenai Fjords before boarding the the beautiful Norwegian Sun cruise ship on the 4th. By that time we knew about Irma but not sure if it would hit home.

The cruise was all we could have hoped for and more, Alaska mountains and glaciers are nothing short of miraculous.

However when we ported in Vancouver a week later we knew for sure our hometown was affected and all airports close to home were closed. Our original plan was to fly back home red eye on the night of the 11th (sep 11th no less!) and 12th but it was not meant to be. Air Canada and enterprise Canada car rental were extremely understanding and helpfully with our travel rearrangement. After a few hours of phone calls curtesy of Vancouver airport (we had no Canadian phone plan) we came up with an arrangement where we only spent a total of $110 Canadian dollars (about $90 USD) to stayed in a cute and cozy little B&B for 3 nights, with a free rental car and free flights change. We spent 3 days exploring the beautiful Canadian Rockies before flying back home last night arriving home this morning.

Anyway, my family and I are all finally home, safe and sound. No damages to any properties as far as we can see, except we will have to throw away everything in the fridge because we were told electricity was lost for 5 days straight.

The Alaska cruise trip worked out marvelously as an unintended evacuation. Praise God, and the goodness of Canadian people.
