Hey folks... Time sure is flying.. Only 18 sleeps until I take off on an adventure I will surely never forget!<br>I'm excited, nervous, stressed and have been so busy with non trip related stuff that I feel totally unprepared..<br>I'm headed to Toronto this week and I plan on doing some last minute shopping at some travel stores. If I don't find what I am looing for there I think I will have to ...

... weitermusste ... Kanadier sind alle ziemlich offen und vertrauenswürdig - soweit konnte ich das bis jetzt für mich festhalten ...<br>Auf der Wohnungssuche darauf ( ich hatte ja nur die Adresse ..) kam mir auf der Straße ein Kanadier entgegen, der meinte, dass ich etwas "verzweifelt" aussehen würde.

... are trying to tell them. We now realize that we are set apart from everyone else in a subtle yet undeniable way. How do you pick up the pieces of a life you left behind and try to make it fit again with your new you? It is not an easy matter and there's no one we know who can tell us how. But do we regret it? No, not for a second. This past year we really felt that we lived; not gone through the motions of living like so many amongst us. Gradually we threw away the ...

... but mainly because I am bringing a lot of stuff for Justin as gifts. He is picking us up at Lima's airport tonight at 10:30pm. Can't wait to see him, to see if he has changed. <br><br>The flight from Ottawa-Toronto was smooth. Once in Toronto, we slowly made our way to the International flights terminal where we then had three hours to wait before our next flight. We later learned that our ...

... is a charming railway town with no more then 10 000 inhabitants. The famed Hwy 66 used to go through but the 1974 Eagles hit song: "Take It Easy" made it well known. The lyric goes: Well, I'm a standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona, and such a fine sight to see It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford, slowin' down to take a look at me. The corner is there. We stayed in the renowned Posada Hotel http://www.laposada.org. This hacienda style hotel is the ...

Thursday September 11th, another early start, beginning the 3rd and final tour through provided by Gray Line, today we headed for Canada's capital: Ottawa, our fist trip out of Quebec and into Ontario. The morning was beautiful, reminiscent of my early morning cycles to university in autumn, cool to start, but reaching about 70 degrees in the afternoon! We departed, as usual, from the tourist information centerer in Dorchester Square and then headed out west to the ...

... t happen because I told them sure, you can search me if you are certain I can make my flight. Since it was already 5:48 and the plane was leaving at 6:15, I left some frustrated security personnel behind me at the Ottawa International Bus Station, I mean, Airport.

... I saw. Just before it was our turn to play, we were watching as a City Chase participant was trying to defend her goal and took the ball to her upper stomach. It seemed like an innocent hit but she was suddenly keeled up in the fetal position in obvious pain. Quickly the volunteers were there to assist, first giving her some time to recover a little bit and then helping her to a waiting chair just behind the goal line. It looked like she had the wind knocked out of her ...

... party. Kayla is ever so cute and Annabelle also very cute and growing so much. She is now 7 weeks old. On Sunday May 18 we celebrated Kayla's 2nd birthday. Her birthday is on June 3 but Dean has to work the next 2 weekends so the party was held this weekend. We had a BBQ at Dean and Kristy's home and both of Kayla's grandparents, some cousins and friends were there to help her celebrate. She had a Dora the Explorer cake and lots of balloons which she loved. We missed ...

... laying the box down on the kitchen table I reached for a steak knife. I don't think I had ever opened a box that slowly in my life. Delicately cutting at edges, slicing tape and pulling at packing paper like a surgeon performing open heart surgery I saw something which made my heart stop for a second... broken wood.<br><br>"An arm? A leg? Oh, god... what have they done to Don!" I said, realizing now that I was talking to myself.<br><br ...
