we are almost there

Hello all
Yes, we have started our journey. After a frenzzzzzzied last night of moving out of the house, we found that the trailer we had bought was not okey dokey, in fact it was a wopsy daisy. The trailer and van combination was not working so plan B came into effect. Therefore we will not go with the dog to mexico and endure scorpions and snakes. This is plan B, we get into a plane with several transfers and land our tender and tired behinds in Quito, Equador. I feel like a Monte Python movie, "and now for something completely different". We have said our fairwells to many folks and the dog is going to visit auntie Marcy and uncle Dirk in Enderby for about 7-8 weeks. We are waiting on baited breath for Rachelle's school books and repack for backpacks. We have convinced the kids that there should only be the neccessities, therefore the reference books for drawing and the oh so fashionable extra clothes are out. There were several other omittions but they were just tooooo private to mention. She is 16 after all. The game plan following is that we will come back to Canada and stay for the summer and enjoy the Okanagan one more time so that Rob and Rachelle can work and increase the funds for travelling.
Oh my god I forgot, we did a cleanse that is so amazing, I will discuss it later, but I will say this I am sure that I passed living cancer. Royal Body Care is the main name, wowowowowow. I will not be carrying old stuff of this last part of life and it went happily out the back door.
Talk with you all soon.
Robin
