Been flying for more than 50 years, and, hands down, the most enchanting flight I've ever taken was Harbour Air from Vancouver to Victoria. I had undergone cataract surgery a week before, and the pilot allowed me to sit in the right front seat to celebrate. We went to Butchart Gardens, and then came my second most favorite flight - the return to Vancouver. Harbour Air, like Vancouver, is wonderful!

I got to fly the float planes there to and from Victoria for work. So much easier than taking the ferry! Great video

3:23 It doesn't matter how big you get Mike, she'll always keep you humble! That was classic sibling doing sibling things. Fantastic episode, as always!

I live on Vancouver Island and yesterday, for the first time in years, I happened to see some killer whales from the shore. Seeing those creatures in the wild is always an absolutely magical experience! I'm so glad you got to experience that with your sister!

About 3 years ago I was living on Galiano Island and my daughter came from Calgary to visit. When we were taking the ferry to Galiano from Victoria, she asked if I had seen any Orcas in the few years that I had been living around the islands. I told her no, that they were pretty elusive to me.
A few days later when we were on the ferry heading back to Victoria, there was a pod with juveniles swimming close to the ferry. They slowed the ferry and we were able to see them and the juveniles were playing and jumping out of the water. They were putting on quite the show. My daughter who was 28 then, was squealing with delight! I was so emotional seeing them and seeing her reaction. Timing could not have been better! They are pretty magnificent!

The Downey family always bring a great energy to videos. Mike and Jess could make an exciting and funny video about paint drying.

The Downies need to air on Family Feud. Your energy is awesome 😅

[garycheevers]

I will gladly accompany you to the Maldives for that airline trip. I’d make that sacrifice ;)

Any video with Jess in automatically has 100% extra Downie enthusiasm & energy - and great to see the two of you watch whales & take seaplane flights, looks like a great day out.

And of course, congratulations on the Masters degree Jess!

Good to see Jess again. Her first seaplane! Glad you chose the outdoors boat, and got to see the orcas. Breathtaking scenery! Thanks, Mike. Thumbs up for Vancouver Harbor Airport.
