After a day at the beach, it's always a good idea to sit down and write about it! Well, if you're mum is a teacher, that's what happens!Here is Cohen's recount of his day at Comox Lake.

Getting Ready for the Big Cross Country Trip
Well The Fales are almost ready to be on the move. In 26 days we will pack up the van and head off across Canada...ending up in Toronto with my brother. There will stops along the way to see friends and family and just things like - the biggest Canada Goose...and maybe the big Nickel. I will let you look both of those up.
We will be posting along the way. The kids will be posting some of the highlights and lowlights of the trip. We recently went on an hours road trip and Cohen asked, "are we there yet? " 7 times. Wow. We better get some good movies for the DVD player or some good earplugs! LOL!
Here is a map of our journey starting in Comox, BC and ending in Toronto Ontario.
We look forward to your following our journey. We cannot wait to explore Canada and learn more about the country I(Andrea) called home for 26 years.
I have made a map of our journey. There were a few hitches with Manitoulin and Forest...meaning the mapping programme did not recognise those places. Sorry Ruth Ann! LOL! Here is our itinerary as it stands now. We have factored in a couple of days for going slower than intended and we are going to do our best to arrive safe and on time!
June 28 - Comox to Kamloops BC - overnight in Kamloops
June29 - Kamloops to Banff - 3 days in Banff(for Canada Day)
July 2nd - Banff to Calgary to The Exley's - 2 days
July 4th - Calgary to Regina - overnight in Regina
July 5th - Regina to Winnipeg - Overnight in Winnipeg
July 6th - Winnipeg to ThunderBay - Overnight in ThunderBay
July 7th - ThunderBay to Wawa - Overnight in Wawa
July 8th - Wawa to Manitoulin - Overnight in Manitoulin
July 9th - Manitoulin to Goderich - Overnight in Goderich
July 10th - Goderich to Sarnia to The Mc Canns until July 18th
July 18th - Sarnia to Forest to The Jensens until July 20th
July 20th - Forest to Burlington to Uncle Paul and Aunt Colette until 27th(ish)
July 27th(ish) - Toronto to Christopher and Aunt Helen and Lorna until August 9th(ish)
That's all that is planned so far. We will probably head from Toronto to Ottawa and then Sudbury and head back to BC that way with a stop in Edmonton to see Brian Mc Grath and his family. We will also stop and see The Beggs family in Langley BC and The Bouley's in Victoria BC. We haven't mapped that journey yet but when we do we will send it along! The map isn't perfect but neither are we!
Thanks to everyone who is opening their doors to us and helping us out along the way. The kids are excited although I am sure they have no idea just how ling it is going to take to get there! My mobile number is 250-882-7024 and we will be on internet when we find wifi! We will update as often as we can and will be doing this on our blog: http://thefales.blogspot.ca/
Please send through your mobile numbers and addresses etc so we know when and where to stop! haha! Also we can send a text every so often so you know where we are! We cannot wait to see you all. Prayers and good luck for a safe journey! xoxoxox Love The Fales A MapQuest map has been sent to you by thefales5@gmail.com.
