Smile We have arrived!!

Well i've purposely been quiet on here over the last few weeks, (didn't want to jinx a thing) but at 10pm local last night we finally arrived in Hanna (AB) after a very long day!
Great flight with Air Canada (expensive but worth the massive baggage allowance 46KG each plus 2 pieces of hand baggae each) more legroom than TC/AT not tried zoom yet cos they were sold out on the day we wanted to travel.

Problems so far: Natwest blocking the C Cards for potential fraud (took a phone call to tell them we were here), 02 putting an international roaming bar on both our phones (now sorted)

Just been out for great breakfast, now just chilling, and starting everything else tomorrow!!

Immigration at edmonton fantastic, took less than 5 mins to issue our WP's and they were full of helpfull advice.

Look out Mandymoochops you got neighbours!!!!

Lol I,ll give you another welcome here - to the land of the Rednecks!

Remind me when I see you about the Springfest in East Coulee on 12th April, is a bit like a folk festival, lots of merriment! A few of us are going and we'd love you to join us!!!
