Well our road trip to Canada began on Saturday morning at 6:00am. We made our 1st stop in Ogden Utah for the night around 8:00pm. The scenery on the way to Utah was OK the best part was going through Arizona the mountain /big rocks were very cool, other than that just a lot of fields and cows EVERYWHERE!!!!. We left Ogden Utah Sunday morning about 6:15 am and finally got to our destination in Calgary around 9:00 pm. It's an hour time difference here.
We had to wait at the border check point for about an hour then we had to go in a speak to immigration about me being here that took like 20 minutes worth of question asking by the immigration officer before they let us go. Some of the things they asked were who was my car registered to, how much cash I had, have I ever been arrested, did I have any firearms or drugs, stuff like that. Odd questions but very intimidating. Today was spent doing laundry unpacking and various errands to get stuff we needed like hangers and bathroom supplies. I have to admit it's really odd not to be employed at the moment but I kinda like the break :-)
I have to admit that with being so busy packing and all that it didn't really hit me that I just made such a major move until last night when I was lying in bed kinda broke down.....
Anyways it's getting late so I better get going
I miss you all very much and I'll write again soon.

About Me
- J & S
- Calgary, Alberta, Canada
- About US: Josh and I met online In October 2006, almost a year after I moved to the San Diego area. We met in person for the first time on October 14th 2006, when we went to dinner and then a few movies afterwards, and have been together ever since, and believe that day to be our anniversay. After 9 months of dating we moved back to my hometown of Calgary, AB Canada. We moved feeling we have a greater oppurtunity to upgrade our education. Josh is upgrading to get into the medical radiology program at SAIT, and I am upgrading to get into the nursing program at Mount Royal.
