Finally after years of planning, waiting and now packing our life up here in the UK we are off to Canada complete with dogs on Sunday. This last week seems the longest, the endless family meals, trying to remember to sort everything which I'm certain we're gonna forget something important but hopefully all will be sorted and away on Sunday

Congratulations and all the best. I know exactly how you are feeling - everything seems surreal. Our dog and cat flew to Calgary on the same flight as us too and that was probably the thing that worried me the most! Couldn't stop thinking about them the whole flight but they were as right as rain once we picked them up the other end.
Best of luck!

Best of luck, and if you are heading this side of Calgary, maybe see you for a coffee one day!
Have a great flight! And bring your shorts and flip flops! 22 degrees today!
