That was easy!
We completed on our house purchase today and get the keys tomorrow! 
Pemberton, BC here we come!
We've had to wait a little bit longer than what seems to be the Canadian norm as there was a tenant in the property who had to be given 60 days notice. But it is definitely nowhere as bad as trying to buy a property in the UK!
Anyway, we're going up there tomorrow night to take "before" photos and make sure it has been left clean, then it's off to Ikea on Sunday to buy stuff to go in it and on Monday our container arrives!
Luckily we've still got our condo until Sunday so we'll have somewhere to lay our heads tomorrow night and Saturday night.
Hope we still like the place!
