March 27th -- Last Post!!!

Well this is my last Sunday posting from Canada, and probably my last before I'll be posting from China! WOW!

Just a reminder, you can check up on us at http://lilahsjourney.blogspot.com where we hope to post a daily message and some pictures. No need for a password this time, just click and read. Messages won't normally go to your email either -- you'll have to check the website for updates.

So . . .the bags are pretty much packed, the paperwork has been checked and rechecked and tomorrow should be a day to do just a few little errands and then enjoy the warm spring weather with Naomi (at least for me, poor Joel still has to work). So far we're well rested this time around and (knock on wood) our colds seem to have subsided. I won't tell you what our suitcases weighed, but let me tell you that I'm glad they are on wheels. They still aren't as heavy as Bernadette's makeup bag on our 2003 trip though, so we'll not have to tie our running shoes to our carry-on bags (heeheehee - you know I had to give you a dig didn't you). Anyhow, I can't wait to start filling them with fun stuff.

Well I am headed out to the hot tub with Naomi to watch the sun set and think of little Lilah as the sun rises on her half of the world. We'll be there soon -- ahhh.

So long!

Karen
