The one trip where I spent more nights on a plane than in hotels
on NT01's travel map.
Since I had to pack light for my abrupt trip, I didn't bring any warm clothing. This was because the temperature in Buenos Aires was 26 degrees centigrade when I researched it. Not bad, since I've used to much warmer temperatures here in the Philippines. And I had managed to survive a few degrees above zero going to Calgary [Calgary-travel-guide-201749] the month earlier. So I knew I could handle the weather in Canada, so no thermal underwear for me.
It went well until I deplaned at Toronto Pearson International Airport. The temperature was 2 degrees Centigrade! Plus when the doors would open, a blast of cold air would permeate the surroundings! I quickly hurried to get my cab ride and headed off to the hotel (Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites). Unfortunately I didn't take photos of the hotel, and my video is in Video8 format (analog), which I haven't converted to MP4 yet. But google maps does wonders of refreshing one's memories from 15 years ago, especially with the street view option.
The hotel is a few blocks away from our Markham office, as I chose this hotel particularly for the proximity.
