Jan 13, 2009 - Here we go... the adventure begins!
It seems that we just returned from our Christmas trip to Wales, and we did -- just two weeks ago! It was good to see Uncle Ron and Peggy and my (Gary's) second cousin Christopher and his fiancee Katie in Chichester, Heather's nephew Carl and his mother Ursula in Bridgwater, and to spend Christmas with Menna (Heather's mother) and our Welsh friends in Cardigan. We left Ottawa this morning at 07:35 flying to Vancouver and arrived 40 Minutes late at 10:40 local time, most likely on account of strong head winds. ... After taking a local bus to downtown Vancouver, we met our friend Jeanine who drove us to Kitsilano Bay where we sat and chatted over a couple of cups of coffee (cup numbers six and seven for the day!).It seems that we just returned from our Christmas trip to Wales, and we did -- just two weeks ago!
