Very friendly check in at the Premium Lounge. Concierge will notify us when we should go to our gate to board our flight to Amsterdam.
My review of the Vancouver Airport Premium Lounge

I have to tell you, this is really good value! Who wants to sit at the gate 3 hours before your flight in uncomfortable chairs and watch everyone squirm? No, no, this is really lovely........quiet, internet access, nap rooms, excellent food and beverages. Very, very relaxing.

International Security at YVR

Did I tell you I had the option of a "friendly security guard" pat down OR the new "full body scan"? I chose the body scan and it was over in about 3 seconds.....nothing invasive at all. In fact, the person scanning is in another area and does not even see you, other than your skeleton! The other choice was a "hands on" pat down...No Thank You!

I have never been so relaxed before a flight..........one hour to go before we board, can't wait. Prague here we come!

My husband sent George to make sure I behave! I am with my girlfriend, so it should be fun! Not that my husband isn't fun.......

George is quite the wine connoisseur and really enjoyed a red wine by the name of Naked Grape - of course a Canadian wine. I'm glad he is enjoying it because I really don't like red wine :O)

To the Lounge and beyond
Thank you for taking George along and for the pictures, everything looks so nice. Have a beautiful flight; I will hear the melodious sound of your voice from Prague, soon. The Boy would like to know Granma Tucker's birthdate - do you know it? Millions of love kisses Andrei

Millions and not Trillions?
I thought I was worth more than a million kisses (this is my husband should this message go public). Love you and miss you much. Prague just isn't the same without you. Talk to you tonight :O)
