We are not happy until you are not happy.

Misery loves company, and looking at the number of 
delayed flights with Air Canada, we have lots of company.
Saturday, August 12... the second time around
We happily devour our meal on ANA after surviving the first Saturday on toast for breakfast, an ice cream cone for lunch, and candy for a late supper.  We decided that after the walking tour we would eat at the Tokyo Airport, but all we could find of interest was some candy.  The meal was great on the airplane.  We landed on schedule in Vancouver, cleared customs quickly, gathered our luggage and checked it in for our Air Canada flight to Winnipeg.  It is about 3:00 pm and we are happy as we fly out at 7:30 pm.  As we check the departure board to find what gate, we notice a flight delay, and within the next 30 minutes, the delay increases to just under two and a half hours.  Comedian Big Daddy Tazz in a skit says that Air Canada's slogan is We are not happy until you are not happy.  The lady at the information desk believes the flight is delayed because of the wind.  Not sure if she realizes that planes fly based on wind, and that every other airline seems to be able to fly in this same wind.  Oh well, we jump on the train and go to a nearby mall to kill some time.  After a couple of hours, we return to the airport, have supper at Tim Hortons, and board our plane just prior to 10:00 pm for Winnipeg.
