Missing you!

To my Dearest Canadian Family,

I made it safe and sound to Florida yesterday. The weather has been terrible. I had to put on shorts before I ate my grilled fish tacos poolside AND had to sit in the shade it was so sunny.

Please do not worry about my fragile disposition, even though the temperature is supposed to drop to a bone chilling 78° F / 26° C I will be fine. Michael recommends that I fortify my delicate constitution with copious amounts of seafood and booze.

As I persevere in this arduous climate, I think back fondly on my time in Toronto. I truly enjoyed the gentle winter breezes off of the lake, the adventure of dressing for an arctic exploration when going for groceries, and the delicious feeling that only the onset of hypothermia can bring.

Miss you all and wish I was back with you all.

I think it was cow day so farmers from all over Canada came to show off their prize bovines. Cows were washed, [...]

All Hail the Great Pumpkin!

Dearest Family,
We threw a Surprise Brunch for Uncle Ray today. Donette managed to get him out of the house by telling him that she wanted to see the Santa Claus Parade. Funny enough Uncle Scrooge wasn’t thrilled about the idea. On the other hand when he saw all of us waiting for him at the [...]

LHR to YYZ

Hello Everyone!
I’ve started to write this blog to keep everyone up to date on my whereabouts. For some of you this might come as a surprise but I’ve left the UK. Sorry I didn’t say good-bye to so many of you but it’s always easier to sneak out the back door then leave through the [...]
