Baptism of Ice

For the first time in over five years I have had to scrape the ice off my car (yet another rental car but we’ve upgraded from “Rent-a-Wreck” to “Budget”) and it is now snowing heavily. But we’d better get used to this because we’ve finally heard that our Canadian immigration application has been approved!! And our apartment should be ready before Christmas!! And we’ve got job interviews!! So forgive us if you don’t get a Christmas card this year as things are a little in turmoil for us at the moment.

For those curious about where we will be living, here’s a dodgy scanned image with a big arrow….

Home sweet home

And a slightly better picture…

Smith Towers

I guess this means our travels really are over now; unless I start working on a sequel!

Have a fabulous Christmas and may 2008 bring you everything you wish for.

    Glad to hear you’ve finally made it in one piece 🙂
    I’ve thoroughly enjoyed following your travels round the world – now the next chapter starts: “Rob & Dulcie – the Vancouver Years.”
    (Although re-reading that it actually sounds like the title for a deeply worrying daytime soap opera. Maybe not then 🙂
    Have a great Xmas and New Year and all that gubbins – with any luck (for us at least) we’ll see thee sometime next year 🙂

    Wowee – all change then. Full steam ahead! Hope all goes well and December proves exciting in a positive way, not a “Phone the damn plumber NOW!” way…

    Keep on blogging.

    Best from sunny Loughborough!

    Hi you two!! We’ve so enjoyed keeping up with your adventures.

    Glad to hear all your good news re immigration approval / readiness of apartment / job interviews, and hope everything continues to go right for you, despite the turmoil.

    Warmest wishes for Christmas, and all the best for a wonderful Canadian New Year!

    What great news – does this mean you are officially Canadian? Or do you still need to pass the entrance exam?

    Merry Christmas to you both. I don’t think the cold should be an issue after camping in Patagonian!

    Hi you two,

    Just to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Sorry we didn’t send a card, but we have only recently got your new address.

    All our Love,
    Nicola and Phil. x x x x
