Default This is it........

John collected our passports and COPR today we are being picked up at 8.15 am tomorrow for our one way flight to Calgary........It's been really difficult saying goodbye to everyone and i don't think it has truly sunk in yet either i know we are off to our dream destination and i keep thinking of the opportunities open to us all.

For all those still waiting, it will happen for you and i never thought i'd be sat here saying all this!!!!

Take care and best wishes to all those following on behind, keep positive

Hi everyone,

Thank you SOOOO much for all your best wishes we really appreciate them!!!

The flight was great and we were through immigration and customs and luggage collected in an hour!!! they were all so professional, friendly and nice. The tip i had got from here about typing all the b4 forms ( goods with and following) certainly seemed to help! we weren't able to fill the official pdf forms in online so just did our own typed list and that was fine.

Tom, were you behind us checking in? or sat behind us on the plane? i hope we were all behaving!?! good luck to you on your journey too

i'll update as we go!!!! take care,

Tina

Hi there, just catching up on past news and am very pleased to see you have made it. Did everything go ok with you Priddis home? We have settled into Bragg Creek really well although we have 1001 jobs to do. We have also had visitors since 11th December and they are with us until 16th January so a lot of stuff is on hold! Happy New Year to you and good luck, we certainly have no regrets.
