Have fun everyone! I would like to come to the next one.

Hi Sans,

Are they boys/girls ??

We will have our 11y.o. girl with us, the boys (17,14) will probably wander round town instead. (they reckon we are "just sad" going to a meet-up )

Weather looks good over there just now still hissing down here

take care

One of each, my girl is very open ,not at all shy and her brother well he's had to cope with her all his life, so he's pretty cool with girls. Yea last few days have been real nice. Where i come from in the Uk, they have been flooding, which is not a common thing in my old area, luckily its not affected my house, in the proceeds of a sale at the mo.

Don't think we will be able to come to the meet up as we may have relatives staying. If we can we look forward to meeting you, if we can't have yourselves a good time!

Hiya folks,

Starting out on our hols later today

Meeting our house swap family for the first time in 11 hours and should be in the house in Victoria in 36 hours....... (not that I'm excited !! )

I will have internet access once we get there so will catch up in a few days.

I just hope the weather is going to be as "UK-like" as the forecasts are saying

Be good while I'm gone

It's a bit grey and on off drizzly today, but it'll pass. We have developed a tendancy to ignore the forecast as 99% of the time they seem to go for the glass is half empty version and then the weather is always better than they predict. So far the most accurate weather forecast we have found is watching the FOX weather report for Seattle.

Have a great trip and we look forward to meeting you and your family soon
