canada bound ...

I have my one way ticket to Canada! I'm flying out on August 24. It's now official ... I am (God willing!) going to be an official resident of Canada in less than a month. I'm packing up my bags and setting off for slighty-foreign soil.

It's interesting, because my father left his native country and moved to the United States when he was my age. And now, here I am, following in his footsteps. Is this the start of a new family tradition?

I won't be posting much on my blog until I get moved in ... and then I'm sure I will have a lot to write. Between battling loneliness, figuring out the metric system and learning to spell like a Canadian ('colour', not 'color'), I'm going to be in for an interesting ride. I'm sure this blog will be the place where everything gets documented in vivid and gory detail.

And yes, I decided to keep up the same blog for my venture north.

More from me soon ...

Since the other way of posting didn't work, I just thought I's try this way to leave you some good thoughts for the move. :)

I believe your grandmother was 29 when she married and moved from London to the country where your Dad was born.
