... but the check in lady at Continental Airlines took me under her wing. Tut-tutting all the while about the tricky situation, she helped me to collect my bag and steered me to customs in order to get me to my gate in time. After that, everything went well - including my hitch-less navigation of the immense Houston Airport, complete with a shuttle train to get passengers from one of the many terminals to another.

... doch immerhin annaehernd. im auto unterwegs entlang dem lake okanagan musste ich feststellen, dass ich viel zu lange auf eine solche reise gewartet hatte - WOW! es war sensationell! die sonne zeigte sich von ihrer waermenden seite, der see war herrlich gruen und die waelder verwandelten die ufer in herbstliche goldkuesten. ich denke, die angehaengten fotos sprechen fuer sich..

unterwegs war ich immer wieder sprachlos ueber die schoenheit der ...

... aus mit abwasserpumpen? was, ist das nicht euer spezialgebiet? in canada laeuft die sache mit dem abwasser etwas anders als bei uns - und zwar nicht nur, weil wir oben auf dem berg sind, sondern weil dies grundsaetzlich so ist. jedes grundstueck hat ein eigenes septic-system und muss dies auch selber unterhalten. so there comes murphy.. joerg hat am donnerstag die ranch wieder richtung europa verlassen. yvonne und ich ruesteten uns physisch und ...

... millor quan va pujar un jove local veinteanyeru a fer coros i va acabar cantant tambe ell.
Val a dir que despres de quasi 3 setmanes compartint-ho tot, dormir en una habitacio privada, amb bany privat, tele privada, microones i nevera privats, ... es un luxe. Golden em va agradar, encara que nomes el Jose hi estaria d'acord.
Per contra Revelstoke no val ni les 2 frases que hi escric. Us recordeu de la serie de teletres Els Joves (the young ones) ? doncs si enlloc de ...

... w**de? :-) wann ich wied** schweiz** boden unt** den fuessen haben w**de, ist ein gedanke, d** dann irgendwann spaet** - viel spaet** - zu ende gedacht w**den wird.. ich halte euch auf dem laufenden.

zum schluss noch eine ganz kurze geschichte aus meinem alltagsfundus.. in d** schweiz habe ich extra noch ein rezept fu** ein medikament machen lassen, damit ich im ausland gut v**sorgt bin. die schweiz** apotheke meinte, ich wu**de dies ohne probleme ...

From Kaslo we went to the Halcyon Hot Springs which is really beautiful but very commercial. Then we headed west to the Okanagon Valley, the banana belt for BC. It's got some great wines too.

We stopped on the way at Fauquier and played golf at yet another beautiful course.

... doing my homework for this trip. Something tells me I would like to stay away from the easy to pronounce places like Sun City. Sure it's partly owned by Michael Jackson and has all the hype of Las Vegas.... but where would I find a ngxowa yebokwe in Sun City? They probably don't even have them there. It's probably chalk full of vaalies and uitlanders. Our next adventure begins in ...

Alas.... 1 year of thorough thought - research, planning, grounding, obsessing, and tuning in has led us here. We have given away the majority of our belongings (by donation and by gift). It's taken 2 stressfull weeks, but everything is well and life is ready to let us swift away into the wind. We are planning on driving back to Toronto, visiting with family, Driving to Delaware ...

... Enderby Flea Market. We each picked a person to buy a tacky souvenir for - I picked Barta, so as he is never seen without his hat, I bought him an inflatable Canadian flag top hat! It was quite amusing as the combination of the hat and his long beard made him look like Abraham Lincoln! We reached Kalamalka Lake for our lunch stop, and by this point the sun had come out, so it looked really pretty. John tried to talk us into ...
