Hard for us to believe, but we’ve already been in Canada for 2 months now. Time does fly….<\/span><\/p>\n

After the US immigration and 39-hour journey episode we landed in Toronto kaput and disoriented. We stayed at my sister\u2019s place for a week, sort of softening our final landing. Feeling tired of being on the go all the time doesn’t mean it is easy to arrive after a year of travelling and discovery\u2026. It\u2019s kind of freaky actually. <\/span><\/p>\n

While still in Australia we used to talk of all the things we could do here during the summer which we normally never get to because we\u2019re not here long enough; there were talks of camping, of visits, of falls, of people to see, of local travels, landscapes, etc. Well guess what? We haven\u2019t done one of them. And it suits us just fine. We\u2019re beached here in our home and I can\u2019t really tell what we spend our days doing but somehow we\u2019re never bored, we just live and it\u2019s enough to keep us happy for now. Needed rest maybe??<\/span><\/p>\n

One important event must be mentionned though: Valerie & Stephane got married! <\/span><\/p>\n

Valerie is my best friend in the whole wide world since I\u2019m 11, so I was more then happy to be back to attend her wedding. And since they\u2019re already done with popping kids (5 between the two of them) they didn\u2019t go on a standard honeymoon: they rented a chalet for 4 days for the whole extended family! So we got to run around in the grass with the small one, eat Val\u2019s brother-in-law\u2019s BBQ cooking, have evening drinks with opa, go on the lake in kayaks with the big kids\u2026. Now that was a change from the both of us alone travelling in our van in Australia! <\/span><\/p>\n

Now we are very excited because for the 1st time ever our friends from Zurich are coming over to visit us in our Canadian home. Only 4 more sleeps before we pick Rene & Carmela up at the airport. Hourra!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t
