Two Sleeps!

August 28, 2011

Getting excited over here!  My plane leaves at 9:20am Tuesday morning, from the Castlegar Airport, otherwise known as Cancelgar.  I hope there are no cancellations that morning!  From there I go to Vancouver, where I have a 2-hour layover, and then I fly to Toronto.  I have 50 minutes there before my flight leaves for Halifax.  Looks like I’ll just miss Hurricane Irene – thank God!

Now on to packing.  From family reports, the summer in the Maritimes has been terrible: cold, cold, and cold.  I’m not sure what to pack.  Both my mom & my SIL told me to bring a mixture of summer and fall clothing.  So I’ll bring a pair of capri pants, some jeans, and some short sleeved and long sleeved shirts.  Not sure about a fleece at this point (Mom said yes, SIL said not to bother) but one thing is for sure, I’m bringing a waterproof jacket and my umbrella.

But what footwear shall I bring???  That is the big question.  I am for sure bringing my running shoes, and I’m for sure bringing the Ass-kicking Boots.  I’ll skip the Guilt Boots, but I think I will take the new Jambus I just got and perhaps my Birks.  That’ll have to be enough.  I’m only allowed one checked bag.

Tomorrow I have a bunch of administrative things to do: banking, getting prescriptions filled, paying rent, etc.  Juno is being taken care of by my former roommate, J, so I need to stock up on some treats & canned cat food.

Lots to do!  But soooooooooooooooo looking forward to getting out of here!

    I’m always a total wreck when I’m packing. Have fun!

    It’s great to see you all excited about this trip. I am looking forward for the Wandering Coyote to report on the good views, cool vibes and great food of the Maritimes. Bon Voyage.
