Victoria, week one






Joel is just coming to the end of his week in Victoria and will depart for Toronto tomorrow morning. It's been a frenetic week to say the least. Our days were just action packed with all the moving details: the truck arriving at customs, moving things into storage, long meetings with the bank to open accounts in Singapore and all the things we are trying to sell on craigslist at the same time. Anyone need a projector?

Our evenings have mostly been spent in our parents homes with family all around, cooking and enjoying multi course meals fit for royalty. Heirloom tomatoes, duck, steak, freshly caught Sockeye, breads from local grain, wonderful smelly cheese and so so much wine. We got to see Joel's family from up island, my uncle and aunt and Grannie, all our siblings and of course parents and a few friends too. It's been another week of good-byes, non-stop food and good company.
