Checking in from London, Ontario
The first part of our journey has been accomplished. Katie, myself and the 24' truck we rented are safe and sound in London. We decided to move all of our belongings to my Grandmother's farm house which has a very large basement space which will be ideal for storage. Driving the 24' truck on the 417/416/401 was interesting to say the least!
We definitely made the rounds before leaving Ottawa last week. We had dinner with our friends Charles and Valerie and their family, dropped in with my Uncle John and Aunt Danielle (in fact crashed at their house on May 31!) and made good bye calls to others that unfortunately we ran out of time to visit.
We had a great sendoff from Ottawa thanks to the handbell festival committee and our great friend Nicole Jeffrey. I managed to stuff in a 'Bells over Ottawa' T-Shirt into my 80 litre trekking bag so it will be making appearances over in the UK and Europe.
As our reward for getting everything ready to be moved by the end of May 30th we set a goal to take Nicole to see the latest Star Wars movie, which was excellent. We are going to miss you 'Scooter'!
While we're in London for a few days I'll be taking the time to help out around the farm and my parent's house. The grass is quite long so you can guess on my mission for the day!
Have a great day all! Our next journey is a bus ride to Peterborough. We will catch the 4am bus on June 4th - Dan
