Not too badly
Getting to work this morning was better than anticipated, considering that Vancouver tends to slip into chaos as soon as snow hits the ground (and sticks).
I only had to wait for about five minutes for the #8 bus. Even though we were going very slowly and even though three quaters of the way the rear doors froze shut (or something else kept them from opening) I got to work at about the regular time. Mind you I left half an hour earlier than normal.
I decided to take the #8 to Main and 2nd, the #84 to VCC Clark and the skytrain from there. They said on TV that the skytrain was extremely busy and crowded, so I really wanted to avoid Commercial Drive Station. The plan worked out nicely. Commercial Drive Station was indeed a madhouse and they made several announcements telling people to move “all the way into the train” (yeah, no kidding!) and to not hold doors open as this will only lead to further delays.
It was slow going at times, but it all worked out.
