Smile let the adventure begin!!

We have arrived in Canada!! WooHoo!! Can't believe that after everything we are here. We arrived last night and are so excited to be here. The sun is shining and the lawn mower is beckoning!

We had a great flight over - never got charged for our over weight baggage and had no problems at customs. We are spending 10 days here in Annapolis Valley with my parents before heading to Ontario where we are going to be living. Just wondered if andy_sheila are reading this where abouts you stay?

I know that I've thanked everyone before for the help they have provided on this site - it has been invaluable - but thanks again!

Here's to a great new beginning!

Cheers! Fiona

Not at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and after having watched Alonso win the Spanish Grand Prix - great drive if a little boring - so lots to drink to Why cannt we have a glass of wine symbol for us that prefer that to beer

Thanks to everyone for the kind welcomes! We are heading to Kingston next weekend. We will be staying there for the next little while to check out the job situation. If it works out then we will be looking at buying a house in that area. I have friends in the surrounding area and they love it so fingers crossed it won't be too hard to get work.
