We were going to get on the plane which left for Japan at 12:15. It takes about 2 hours from Whistler to Vancouver International Airport. We had a reservation from the transport service at 7:00. We asked the transport company to pick us up in front of our condo. A minivan arrived on time.
When the driver got out of the minivan, I asked him to show us around Squamish, which is located midway between Vancouver and Whistler, or drive around Stanley Park on the way to the airport, but he replied that we didn't have enough time to do so. I didn't know we were on Daylight Savings Time now. Our plane wouldn't leave at 12:15 as now the departure time had changed to 11:15. Consequently the boarding time was 10:25. We arrived at the airport at about 9 o'clock. The procedures of departure and a strict security check were waiting for us. I felt pressured. Actually the security check was stricter than before. I was very sorry not to be able to have enough time to enjoy shopping at the airport.
