Taking Off

We left New Zealand on the 19th December and it was a lovely hot day. Our plane ride was turbulent for the entire journey. None of us had a good time but the most important thing is that we got to  Canada safely. We saw Gramma and Bunka right away and Cohen ran to them! Kieran was there too! There were lots of tears and happy smiles.

We left the airport to head for the ferry and it was cold. It was 1 degree outside. It was refreshing but it was mostly cold. We had to wait a bit for the ferry so we got to have some wraps that Gramma made us and we all had a hot drink.  

The Ferry was massive and our sailing was called the Halibut. (which was the fish I was looking forward to eating)

The ferry took 2 hours but it was nice and smooth sailing. Once the ferry docked we drove off into snow. It was nice to see snow. I forgot how difficult it is to drive in. We made it to Comox safely and on the way into mum and dad's driveway we saw a deer in the yard across the road! What a Canadian welcome home! 

We hope you will follow our blog and come along on our OE with us! 

The kids and I will take turns writing posts! 

We are finally relaxed and are sitting in the family room, fire on, watching Frosty the Snowman!

Take care and leave us a comment!
