As I sit here and write this, a cloud of inevitability hangs over our household. In less then 24 hours we will all be on a plane headed for a completely different continent. In less then 24 hours our family will be free of the confines of Canadian life, venturing into the unknown. The luggage is packed, the fish shipped off, the orchids now rest in warm university greenhouses or lay forgotten in a frozen compost heap. This is it, for there is no turning back, no more delays, or arguements or loosing the 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner(Im looking at you Danielle). We are going, stepping bravely (or maybe nauseously depending if we forget to pack the gravol) into the unknown. Not a single one of us is fully prepared for the experiences we will... well experience. But know this mortals, we shall return... with lots and lots of pictures.
