I’m not sure why
and I often ‘wonder’ why
that last week
before something important is going to happen
just flies by
I’m sure there were less hours this past week
than all the weeks previously
We did all the figures and budgeted well
which meant we are able to afford it
(anyone remember the budget books I keep)
Heres a couple of pages from last year
For me recording each bill and payment works well
that way I can keep a check on expenses
So its time to say goodbye for a few weeks
I’ve been running round like a hairy monster
trying to get things done
and finished
Most things are in the case
just a little to finish off tomorrow
Kiera will be going to the Boarding Cattery in the morning
I know I will worry about her being on her own for that long
She still follows me around and is very possesive
When she’s outside she doesn’t move far from the house
Perhaps we’ll think about another cat to keep her company when we get home
Staying the night near the airport as
we’ll be flying out at stupid o’clock Thursday morning
(otherwise known as – very early flight)
SO
First stop is Vancouver followed by a week at sea
seeing the sights in Alaska
Then its off to the other side of Canada
To the Maritimes
where we’ll catch up with Dh’s fabulous extended family
who live in the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia
Love that place!!
Highlight of this time is going to be visiting Newfoundland
Something to look forward to as we’ve never been to that Province before
Coming home via Calgary to catch up with one of Dh’s old airforce friends
We’ll be back in Melbourne October 2nd
hopefully having enjoyed some warm sunny dry days
I’ll know I’ll be tired and weary
but so so ready for the warmer weather
‘cose this winter has been cold and wet and ‘orrible
I think I’ve mentioned that a few times over the past few months lol
Heres the man himself – this is from the last time we cruised the Inside Passage
Looking a little ‘plump’ from a week of unlimited food lol
He lost a few kilos when he was sick recently
so will be able to enjoy those meals without feeling guilty this time
I don’t think I’ll be posting during this time
but then you never know
See you in October

Forgive me for getting so far behind on your posts. Sometimes I will lose a blogger and I don't know why. Have a fun trip and I'm betting you'll manage to get a post or two in before October.
