Travelodge Hotel Regina

... the tv, oh the hardship!!!<br><br>In Regina we found a cheap campsite out on the edge of the city limits, this was a great base for us, as there was a common room with free wi-fi, a big telly with cable, but most importantly it was warm and dry and open till 9pm each night. We took to sleeping in the car on the second night, as we found this warmer than our tent, and it was surprisingly comfortable.<br><br>Our first day here was wasted sorting out a chipped windscreen on our rental ...

... it is 3 to 4 hours prior to your flight leaving (security reasons)....I flew home to Calgary....I am lost as I presently don't have a house to live in or a job to pay the bills or a direction for the next few months...as I should be on the adventure of a lifetime...which in hindsight it definitely was...no one else I've talked to has had this kind of thing happen to them there???? So there you have it....adventure55 was definitely that...

... Another option we considered was the Brit-Ireland combo... but it was more money and I think we are more into working in England than anywhere else. Signing up was very straight forward and easy. You just had to fill out a form that was really only a page and a half long and then give them the money up front. You also needed a reference from a teacher or employer or something like that ...

... free! If you can't picture a 450 sq ft house...then let me help. My bed room is 7' by 8' I moved my bed to the other end of the room...6 inches. I have a window. a small closet, a bed, a dresser and a crate for a nightstand. Nothing else is fitting in there. The 2nd bedroom (office) is 7' by 7' a desk, a window and a chair. It's oddly one of my favorite rooms in the house. For some reason the black lamp and light ...

... Superstore." This place is larger than our Super Wal-Marts. I just stopped to get some free fresh bread (thanks to a gas card) and a huge bowl of blueberries. From here we drove to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Museum and Academy. This is where all the "Mounties" train. Due to my talking I missed the road there and had to turn into this neighborhood. However, the GPS told me it would hook back up with the main road. But the road came to a dead end and I had ...

... emotional support. It was in Kisumu where the post election violence and the effects of that really sunk in. We drove by burnt down hospitals and shops. It was really sad to see what was left behind from the violence and to think about the terror that those have been displaced experienced. There was still an IDP (internally displaced persons) camp in the middle of the city. At that point there was only one family living in it but it ...

My first travel blog entry for my trip to New Zealand/Australia. It's Thursday - boy, am I ever glad to be going - the weather has been so cold (-35C with -50 wind chill)! It's finally warming up today (-15C)but not enough to make me want to stay. Of course, we couldn't leave for vacation without having some excitement. We found a mouse in the house last night. or I should say Andy did after it ran over his foot in the kitchen. After our dismal attempts to catch/kill it - those ...

... conventions, humidity, incredible shopping, etc..., etc... Canada (and Regina in particular) just seems to be very sleepy in comparison. This is both good and bad. On the one hand it is slow here at home. On the other, a home/house here is actually relatively affordable! Living in Japan or another city in Canada would be a very interesting experience but we're probably ...

Well hello everyone. This is the inaugural entry into my travel blog. We are still in Regina, as we don't leave for 30 days.
