... farm. It is a Xmas tree farm and they use the cabin to give out hot chocolate to the people who come to buy the trees at Christmas. We had a turkey dinner which was delicious and the girls went for a drive in the truck to see the Christmas trees. They spent most of the night in the barn with Emma and Sarah petting the horses, dogs and cats. We went back to Anamieke and Jan’s house. The girls were put to bed in their room which ...

... money. I enter the money exchange and it feels like Australia with the security a bit relaxed I can actually touch the person behind the counter and she gives me money in denominations I am used to ( USA only has 1Cent ,5Cent ,10 cent, 25 cent, coins notes are 1,5,10,20,100)<br><br>We drive along the cliff looking at the falls and trying to find somewhere to park. no luck parking unless you want to pay 20 dollars so back to a carpark I saw near the exchange it still ...

Well the day has finally come...Dustin is flying the Coop...Do you think he could have chosen a closer place just to visit his Mum???? :-(<br>We flew WestJet from London to Vancouver. See attached pictures for a view of the Rockies from the plane.

... we drove through south London. More condominium housing and strip malls - all the big box stores you can think of. With all the development taking place I wondered how long the city could hold on to its title as The Forest City.<br><br>We shared a time of great food, and conversation, talking until after 10:00 p.m., when we decided it was best to check into our hotel to get some sleep, since we had such a long journey waiting for us the following day.

... we hit lake Erie.  We stopped to relieve ourselves in the bushes and take a look at the map. Matt said that we could either go about 3 miles to the next campsite or go 18 miles to the one after that. Needless to say, we chose the close one. When we got to the road to turn on for the campsite, we saw a food mart so we stopped. Inside was a very strange middle eastern man and woman who sell very over priced fruit juice and cans of soup.  They were watching a ...

That's the other aspect of this trip that needs mentioning. Nick and I were at that desperately awkward stage in high school relationships... the I-like-you-and-I'm-fairly-certain-you-l ike-me-so-let's-exchange-many-glances-a nd-stand-inordinately-close-to-each-oth er ...

... our backpacks, a tent, a guidebook, travel journals, socks "guaranteed not to give us blisters" and passports (guess who is a full fledged British citizen!) and are pretty much ready to see what the world has to offer. We have a rough idea of where we'd like to go but no real itinerary set in stone. I guess that is supposed to be the fun part. Heres to a great adventure (and avoiding getting robbed) ! Cheers, Erin and Mike
