I know this is late but I realized I haven’t kept up my blog in awhile so here’s a travel post. Kitchener/Waterloo (KW) is a small, peaceful town. Angela and Dustin seem to really like it there. I joined them for a week over Easter and had good timing as the weekend was hot! Went […]
National Topless Kayaking Team Jasper Trip
by Bertha on 05. Feb, 2010 in Canada 2006
Last weekend’s “National Topless Kayaking Team Jasper Trip” was a success! Snowshoeing topped our list of things to do. We went on a well used multi use trail that lead us towards Beaver Lake from Medicine Lake. The weather cooperated with us mostly (slightly foggy so views of the mountains were not the best) by […]

Operation Christmas Child 2009 and Santa’s Anonymous
by Bertha on 02. Dec, 2009 in Canada 2006
This year I had a little trouble with getting my act together for Operation Christmas Child. Safeway stopped sponsoring them and so I had to go to Greyhound to pick up and drop off boxes. Also, I started a bit late this year so I managed to only get done about 3 boxes with the […]

I think this year is the year I’ve taken the most holidays ever! In May I went to Australia for 3 weeks, September to Toronto for 10 days, and October to Las Vegas for 5 days. Needless to say that there will be no more vacation for me until Boxing Day. I met up with Adrian and […]
Toronto Part 2
by Bertha on 02. Nov, 2009 in Canada 2006
I am so behind on posts; it’s not funny! I just wanted to sum up Toront by saying that there is so much fabulous food to eat out there! Sampling so many different kinds of ethnic foods is so much fun! You can do all the touristy things for a week or even less but […]
Beau and Christy’s Wedding
by Bertha on 02. Oct, 2009 in Canada 2006
Beautiful ceremony at a quaint church outside of Christy’s hometown of Busby in mid-September. Although I was early for picking up Charlene and Dan at Spruce Grove, we were confused about the direction to take to find Hwy44 and therefore ended up about 10 minutes late for the ceremony. Luckily, the congregation was standing and […]
Toronto part 1
by Bertha on 20. Sep, 2009 in Canada 2006
I’ve been here about 3.5 days now and the weather is absolutely perfect! Sarah arrived at the airport about an hour before I did so we took the TTC (subway) into town together and easily found our hostel. (Thank you Julie from WestJet for being so helpful when I realized I left the directions to […]
Mt. Robson Hiking Trip
by Bertha on 14. Sep, 2009 in Canada 2006
Charlene, Dan, Jane and I took the time to do a small hiking trip after driving out to Mt. Robson for Jana and Jonathan’s wedding. It was my first back country camping experience and I think Jane’s also. We had a great experienced leader who planned everything and all we had to do was show […]
