Hi from the South but Where is My Trunk?!

I was ahead of schedule (YES to my meticulousness), car packed up, far too excited to sleep, so I set off Thursday evening.

Then nah.

Let’s turn around and head back to Toronto.

Change in plans, let’s fly instead.

And that’s why I don’t have my trunk with me. Despite talking incessantly about it for 3 months. I love that trunk, I even made it its own blog catagory.

Ahhh the best laid plans.

So I took it to my storage unit, hauled it out of my car myself (I. Am. A. Beast).

Re-packed and reduced everything to two suitcases and a backpack.

Last adjustments Saturday morning.

And I’m off! Tweeted this photo to commemorate.

I always board last, I’ve mentioned this before. I don’t understand lining up to be first… you’re just going to have to sit there longer?!

Good things can happen when you board last… that’s how I got bumped up to First Class flying home from Alberta last week.

True story:

I have a lot of blog girl gear.

Changed planes. The Detroit airport is huuuge.

Taken just before initial descent, that’s how huge because I am high up.

Good airport advice:

Back up in the sky.

If you see that view in real life and if it doesn’t move you, you’re dead inside.

And I arrived!

Yes that’s McDonald’s, I went directly there off the plane. I’m predictable that way.

I’m pumped to share my trip with you!!

I have to figure out internet here, which I’m en route to do soon as I hit publish on this post.

Hope Your Christmas Was Great, Too

Woke up to coffee and opening stockings, a family tradition.

The tree shone while the chinook melted the snowman.

I’m so grateful my visit coincided with a chinook, otherwise it’d have been a -25*C visit.

What’s a chinook?

I guess customs was curious about my brother’s gift hat.

We all got really into the fire log TV channel.

You know the channel that is just a fire burning?  Whenever the arm came out to adjust the flames someone would yell, “Guys! The arm is on!”.

My day today. I’ll tell you about Dinasaur Park later this week, which was awesome.

Dinner time.  Which was delicious; Kerri killed it.

Christmas crackers!

I like to think how many people around the world are wearing Christmas cracker crowns tonight.

And that concludes my Christmas blogging, that’s enough.

Have a great boxing day, don’t spend it all on the sales.

TTYT
