Okay...I will only give the story once as I'm sick of telling it...I went to Mumbai...the couchsurfer host was MOST UNWELCOMING...I refused his advances and he started to treat me horribly finally throwing me out of his house...I then tried to get a hotel...a holiday weekend...no hotel rooms available...(maybe at the Taj where the shootings were but I just wasn't about to try that one)...then I had two men try to steal my bag...I fought ...

... dusting each day. My road is pretty iced over and packed with snow and I slide past my driveway almost everyday as I try to turn in. It's suppose to be 30 below tomorrow 0 mind this is celsius but it is still darn cold. I am not terribly home sick...do miss my friends a bit...and of course Sadie. When you have a dog you don't realize how much they help with the housework. She's always been good at picking up crumbs off the floor. One last story for ...

... maple leaf with a bed bug in the middle of it!! Besides that - some other news: 1. Gas is down from $1.15 a liter to $.94 liter. 2. The NY Jets have been on TV 3 of the 4 weekends I've been here - and have won 2 of the 3! 3. Alcohol is expensive here...beer is roughly $20 - $25 a 12 pack! Coors light and Molson Canadian are the cheapest. 4. Beer with Lime Icee is really really good 5. Went to see my first Regina Pats ...

... half where we planned to backpack from Northern Europe to Southern Europe she really wanted to join us in England while we lived there working. So with an extra member added and most of our plans hashed out we headed to the airport to begin the adventure of a lifetime. Four years in the making, Two years of travelling, and nothing but high hopes and excitement we said our good byes to friends and family and jumped on a plane destined for London. The adventure begins...

... the struggles that we have in health care truly are international. Incidentally some of the best learning that we had was when we were talking to each other. It was really neat being able to process the things that we were learning with the members of our group. One of my favorite moments of the trip was when we were sitting and chatting with Rose and Esther about life. It was really interesting to see their views and get more ...

... had booked a room at the airport hotel for the night in Calgary as our arrival was after any departures to Regina. On Wed morning, we arrived at the gate to find out our flight was delayed by 2 hours. Air Canada said the plane in Regina (that turns around in Calgary and returns to Regina) had mechanical troubles so they had to get another plane. So after more time sitting around in an airport, we finally left Calgary at 9:45 and ...

After two delayed flights, we finally arrived back in Regina - only to have to wait in the cold for about 15 minutes before a cab finally arrived. Regina in the ONLY city I have ever flown into where there areregularly no cabs available. Besides being frustrating, it's embarrasing to be seen as two-cab town. Enough complaining, though. I guess in the scheme of things, a 15 minute wait for a cab is minor. Everything else went so ...

... I was despairing I saw a bug-fest! Rob was well chuffed and grinned his little head off for the next hour and half whilst we tried to decide which Volkswagen was the best. There were some really nice beetles and one that you could paint on, so we did. It is so hot today I could just jump in a nice cool pool! We later we found a mall that was open and went looking for Harry Potter. The last book came out yesterday and I needed ...
