Chapter 1428: Magpie



From Vancouver to Yellowknife, which is further north, this was the original itinerary. It takes 11 hours for China Eastern Airlines to fly to Vancouver, and it is afternoon local time when we arrive. There are no connecting flights to Yellowknife at this time. Yunluo and An Chuyu chose to stay at the Delta Airport Vancouver Hotel, which is only 15 minutes away from the airport.

On the one hand, you can catch up on some sleep, and on the other hand, you can breathe in plenty of fresh air. 35Richmond36RichmondDelta This Richmond hotel features a marina, free Wi-Fi and a daily breakfast buffet. The hotel offers a shuttle service to Vancouver International Airport and a free 24-hour local shuttle service.

The hotel is 6 miles (9.6 km) from downtown Vancouver. 37Richmond is a regular transit hotel. There is nothing special to talk about. It is equivalent to a 4-star hotel in China. Delta will not disappoint you at first sight. The hotel is a bit low-key under the blue sky, and countless green plants occupy a large space.

38Richmond is set off by the hotel highway in the distance, the sky rail that occasionally passes through, and the vast expanse of open land. When you walk out of the airport, there is a waiting room for the airport hotel. You only need to recognize the logo of the hotel you booked and get on the bus. The enthusiastic hotel driver will carefully help you carry your luggage.

The hotel also provides a signature smile. If you travel between the airport and the hotel frequently, it is best to prepare a small tip for them on the last day. The hotel provides shuttle service to Vancouver International Airport and 24-hour free local shuttle service.

39Richmond40Richmond41Richmond42RichmondDifferent from domestic airport hotels, Delta is much better than expected. The hotel lobby is not actually very big, it feels small and cozy, and usually there is light music playing. The furniture used in the lobby is brightly colored, making the slightly low-key appearance lively all of a sudden.

The fatigue from the airport will disappear as you relax naturally. Marble floors, cut-pile carpets, neutral-toned walls and fabrics. Simple and elegant. Groups of guests will sit on the sofa chatting or looking for travel tips. 43RichmondTime flies, space is not easy. The hotel's room type is relatively simple, with a large bed occupying most of the room.

Sleep is really important here. After getting rid of their fatigue, Yunluo and An Chuyu, who came from Beijing, really needed such sleep. 44RichmondBut after finishing herself. Yunluo still habitually looked at the scenery outside the window. The unfamiliar environment, a little excitement, and the blue sky and white clouds that were more real than imagined, this is Vancouver.

To be honest, I still want to go out for a walk. I don't want to sleep when the weather is good. However, the body never lies. After watching for a few minutes, Yun Luo was attracted by the soft bed. After landing, there is nothing more attractive than a good sleep. 45Richmond46Richmond47RichmondVancouverAirportDeltaHotel hotel room.

Cable TV and a coffee maker are provided. Each room has a radio, hairdryer and ironing facilities. Bathroom facilities are relatively simple. 48Richmond49RichmondAfter three hours of sleep, I woke up. My body was rejuvenated and I wanted to go out for a walk. The hotel is really not big, and it takes only five minutes to walk around.

DeltaAirportVancouver Hotel has an outdoor pool and gym. The hotel provides services including bicycle rental, car rental, laundry facilities and room service. There is indeed an outdoor pool, but it was a bit cold because the weather was already a bit cold. It was still such an afternoon, and no one was swimming in the pool, but there was a young couple playing chess next to them.

A huge game. They had a lot of fun playing it, and enthusiastically invited Yunluo and An Chuyu to play with them. However, Yunluo's level was really average, and he lost several games in a row, but the lady was very happy. 50Richmond51Richmond52Richmond said goodbye to them. Yunluo and An Chuyu decided to walk to a path farther away.

It was a quiet and pleasant dusk. Although the planes and vehicles overhead never stopped, the river, green plants and foreigners riding bicycles passing by in groups of three or two made people feel relaxed. 53Richmond54RichmondOf course. It can also be simply summarized as, other people's dusk is very touching.

It is true that in China there is not much time to quietly wait for the sunset. People in the city always laugh at themselves and say that they are too busy. 55Richmond56Richmond Yunluo thought that not everyone would be willing to walk out of the hotel and watch the sunset in a foreign country like Yunluo and An Chuyu, because there is really no one else on this road.

There are only Yunluo and I. 57Richmond58Richmond59Richmond60RichmondIt is hard to imagine that this hotel reminds you how close it is to the airport. On the path not far away, there are so many flowers and grasses blooming. It always gives Yunluo all kinds of reasons to sigh about the beautiful autumn time.

61Richmond62Richmond63Richmond64Richmond65Richmond66RichmondEspecially when Yunluo found a row of wild hawthorns, he was overjoyed. Yunluo's OPPO camera phone finally came in handy. However, whether they are wild hawthorns remains to be investigated.

However, they are really beautiful in appearance. 67Richmond68Richmond69Richmond70RichmondSo he walked back to the hotel slowly and had dinner in the restaurant. 71Richmond72Richmond73RichmondDeltaVancouverAirport Hotel has.

Pier73Restaurant offers live entertainment on select nights. HemisphereNorthRestaurant serves breakfast and FUELBaristaBar is also located on the property. 74DeltaVancouverAirp75DeltaVancouverAirp See chalk drawings on stone.

I admire this kind of happy life. 76Delta Yunluo thought that airport hotels are indeed a type of hotel with a clear purpose. Welcoming and seeing off guests are like "migrant birds" coming from different places, a transit or a rest. After dawn, they still need to continue their journey, so caring care is of course indispensable.

But is this unexpected scenery a gift for Yunluo and An Chuyu?

Picking up the ticket at the airport was completely done on the device. The seat was already booked, but you need to print the luggage tag yourself according to how much luggage you checked in. I didn't have high expectations for cheap flights like Westjet, but I was given two drinks and snacks and one water during the more than 4-hour journey. It was okay, but it was tiring to sit for the whole journey because the seats on the plane were too close together.

After waiting for two hours at Edmonton Airport and flying for another hour and 20 minutes, we finally arrived at our destination, Yellowknife. Yellowknife is also translated as Yellowknife, the capital of Canada's Northwest Territories. Yellowknife has very different natural landscapes from the entire Northwest Territories, including vast wilderness, weathered mountains, rugged landforms, tranquil lakes, and leisurely wild animals...

In the eyes of Canadians, Yellowknife is a pure land that awakens people's body and mind. Starting from August, you can enjoy the Northern Lights in Yellowknife at night. The red, blue, yellow, green and purple aurora are like bright silk floating in the sky, which is extremely magnificent. You can also enjoy the aurora by wearing a long dress.

The climate is quite comfortable. 77 Yellowknife The airport terminal is like a bus station, with no sealed walkway connecting the plane and the terminal. 78 Yellowknife Before coming, I prayed for clear weather. I was afraid that the thick clouds would block the aurora. When I walked out of the airport, I saw big dark clouds. 79 The Hotel Explorer 80 The Hotel Explorer I traveled thousands of miles to see the aurora.

After coming to Canada, Explorer Hotel Yellowknife was the hotel where Yunluo and An Chuyu stayed in Yellowknife. The hotel was built in 1974 and renovated in 2006. It is the best hotel in downtown Yellowknife. It is also the place chosen by Prince William and Princess Kate to stay this time. To be honest, it is not very luxurious, but think about it, the prince and princess have stayed here.

I do think that their status is quite high. 81Yellowknife82Yellowknife83Yellowknife84Yellowknife In fact, the entire city of Yellowknife is not very big, with only a few blocks, and you can walk around it quickly. In Yellowknife, there is also Old Town where the aboriginals live, according to the local guide who accompanied them, Yunluo and An Chuyu.

The government paid a lot of money to feed the aborigines and even helped them clean the toilet pipes at home. Most of the aborigines were unemployed. They lived a carefree life. 85TheHotelExplorer86TheHotelExplorerThe lobby of the hotel is not very big, but it is very warm, really warm. Because the winter in Yellowknife is really super cold.

It's colder than the Northeast China where Yunluo and An Chuyu met, so there is a special design at the entrance of the hotel. It's almost like a world apart, cold outside and warm and free inside, so for this iron wall city, gorgeousness doesn't matter. It just needs to be enough for use. Imagine walking from the extremely cold outdoors into the indoors.

The first thing you will feel is whether it is warm enough and whether you can feel warm instantly. You should not check whether the hotel lobby is luxurious enough as soon as you enter. Because the feeling of the store is more important than what you see. 87TheHotelExplorer88TheHotelExplorer To suit the occasion, there is a huge polar bear at the entrance of the hotel.

This cute pet is so famous in Canada's Northwest Territories that it is featured in almost all tourist promotions and is also included in souvenirs. The one at the entrance is super lifelike, with very delicate fur, so many tourists will take photos with this big polar bear.

Speaking of iconic things, the stone figurine at the door is even more worth mentioning. This "Welcome" stone shape has a very interesting origin. It is said that a long time ago, the aborigines always had to deal with all kinds of ferocious animals. When they went out hunting, they would mark the roads they passed by to prevent themselves from getting lost.

Because they had to walk a long way every time they went out to hunt, this "Welcome" stone became their signpost. This thing could be seen in many places before, but later, as cities were gradually built, there were fewer and fewer opportunities to go out hunting. The "Welcome" stone became the symbol of this area and gradually evolved into the meaning of "Welcome".

Of course, with the development of tourism today, this thing has naturally become a tourist souvenir. The hotel puts this here as a bidder, and the meaning is very clear, for all guests who come from afar! All guest rooms are equipped with free Wi-Fi. All guest rooms in the hotel are equipped with a flat-screen cable TV and an iPod docking station.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Each air-conditioned guest room has a desk and a seating area. Of course, these are standard features of the room. In other bustling cities, you may not think this is a special service, but think about this small city that specializes in watching the aurora. It is really not easy for a hotel to meet these requirements. 95TheHotelExplorer96TheHotelExplorer Although.

When the clouds faded, it was the autumn season in Yellowknife. But the cold was really not to be underestimated. The warm hotel cabin really made people feel warm and comfortable from the bottom of their hearts. In the room, take a comfortable bath, turn on the stereo, and take a book. Although there is not much warm sunshine, think about the night sky with aurora passing by from time to time above your head.

It was such an exquisite time. The Hotel Explorer has a fitness center and a business center for guests to use. For added convenience, an ATM machine is located on site. The hotel also has a business center and an ATM machine for added convenience. Fred Henne Territorial Park is 4 km away.

The Northern Frontier Visitors Centre Old Town and Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre are just a 5-minute walk from the hotel. It is only 25 minutes from Cameron River Falls Trail, Cameron River Ramparts and Aurora Village.

Check-in from 15:00:00 hours, check-out after 12:00:00 hours, pets are allowed on request. Check-out policy, if the reservation is cancelled less than 2 days before the scheduled arrival date, the hotel will charge the equivalent of the first night's accommodation. In case of non-cancellation or even no-show, the hotel will charge the equivalent of the first night's accommodation (in case of no-show).

Cancellation without penalty 2 days prior to arrival date is normal hotel cancellation policy. Please note that cancellation policies may vary. Regarding extra beds for children, please check before booking. Older children/adults can stay at the hotel at an extra bed price of CAD 10 per person/night. One child under 2 years old can stay at the hotel free of charge. 97 Yellowknife Hotel after settling in.

Yunluo and An Chuyu went to have dinner and took a walk. The biggest feeling about Yellowknife is that this city is really small. It took a while to walk around, and there was nothing special to buy or where to buy. The whole city was very quiet, and there were few people around, and most of them were tourists.

Occasionally, you will see aboriginals who look like Asians on the street corners. They basically have no jobs and are supported by the government. When I heard this, Yunluo really wanted to be an aboriginal! Yellowknife is located on the northern auroral oval, far from the ocean, and in the rain shadow of the Rocky Mountains, with more sunny weather, so it has become one of the three major aurora viewing sites in the world.

This was originally a gold prospector town, which prospered in the 1930s with the discovery of gold mines. Later, when the gold was exhausted, it fell into decline, but later diamonds were discovered, so it continued to exist (this place is too good). So although the weather is not very good and it is far from anywhere, it still has a population of 19,000.

The days in summer are too long to see the aurora, and there is too much rain and snow in autumn. So go in winter when the weather is not too cold, so September is the best season. In fact, it will feel better in winter, but Yunluo and Mr. Yan are really afraid of the cold. 98Yellowknife99 Take a walk in Yellowknife, where comfortable and warm little houses are on both sides of the road.

The buildings are not high, and it is a small place with a lot of atmosphere. However, the weather here is really bad, with few sunny days. It is also very cold when it is cloudy, which is equivalent to the winter in Jinan. 100Yellowknife101Yellowknife The first night of the aurora was taken to the newly opened observation point by Vida from "Yellowknife Travel" with Yunluo and An Chuyu.
