Re: For those of you in Canada....
I spent the first 17 years of my life trying to escape ever having to spend another horrendous Christmas with my family (I'm 27 to put it into context).
I certainly wouldn't want to waste my valuable annual leave returning to blightly where I would feel so guilty I would see them.
Mr L2S and I are off to Sun Peaks with 10 other young prof "orphans" for 5 days staying in a luxery slope side cabin!!!!!!

I assume all who consider Canada 'home' are citizens of this fine country?

But I guess, growing up as a military child, the concept of "home" may not have had the same emotional ties to a specific place that many others doubtless have. Home is, as the saying goes, wherever I hang my hat.

We have a webcam and it will be great to see family on the day.
We're too been here 1 year in January, boy it's flown by fast!
Have a good one
