We arrived in London late this morning (REALLY early our time) and took the transport to the hotel.  It's quite a nice hotel, but they use some kind of smelly something in the lobby that is rather overwhelming!  It's not like that in the room, thank heavens.

We checked in, left our bags in storage and traipsed out for a short visit to the shops ( Read more... )

Pel and I are in the Vancouver airport, waiting for our flight to London. We had a lovely breakfast visit at lunchtime with Brig, Rod, Em and Sue before we left Victoria. The flight to Vancouver was REALLY quick and we're off to a good start ( Read more... )

I am sitting in my bedroom with the door to outside open (it's quite warm in here) and the cat grooming himself just inside.  Em is in her room playing a computer game (Rollercoaster Tycoon) and Sue is watching TV in the living room.  Life is pretty good at home!  We've had a lovely, quiet weekend with lots of walking of dogs and not much else.

I'm sitting here at my ( Read more... )

Well, my spring break is quickly winding down -- I only have a few more hours left of lazying about, eating cherry bon bons (well, I don't actually have any cherry bon bons, but you get the picture!).  Hard to believe I've had two weeks off!

Bim and Muff arrived on Wednesday afternoon and we were out for dinner in Sidney and to "Tuesdays With Morrie ( Read more... )

Hi everyone...is there anyone?? :)

I am lazing around on this cloudy, yet useful, Sunday in Victoria.  It's the middle of my Spring Break (I'm spoiled to get two weeks!) and Emily is off on her amazing band trip to Phoenix.  This means that:

a)  I have no Emily to play with.

b)  I have no driving around to do.

c)  I have no Emily to play with.

So, here ( Read more... )

Ok, anyone remember Loggins & Messina's "A Love Song"?  I'm listening to it right now.  Lovely ( Read more... )
