We are off !

The title does not refer to the smell.

Today is the day we leave. We have each packed and repacked 3 or 4 times and feel like we have got everything we need. The bus leaves at 1:30 from CP and Kathleen's cousin Beth has kindly agreed to meet us at Scarborough Town Center and then take us to the airport. That makes the airport trip seem much easier. I was wondering if the most dangerous part of the trip would be going through the Toronto bus station.

laptop in the drying position

I think I needed more stress in my life so last night as I was enjoying my final glass of wine I spilt it all on my laptop. The laptop died instantly and so did I (almost).  I took it all apart and have left it to dry while we are away.  I won't know until we get back if it will come back to life. Something to look forward to while we are away.

Our luggage ready to go (11:00 am)

The backpacks are packed and ready to go. Oh oh! -  I see a suitcase in there. Kathleen has done a last minute switch on me. Do I have to change the blog title to 3 Backpacks and a Suitcase? What do you think?

I think we are both a little excited about this trip.
