Day 1 of travelling






We got to Mom's at NOON where Al met us to say 'good-bye' (how sweet). Mom got home from work shortly after, and Irene & kids met us at her house to wish safe travels. She brought goodies for us to share. Travelling went well, once we figured out how to diffuse the LOUD whirring sound from the car top carrier when driving on the highway. We had to stop by sister Irene's to 'fix' the problem, and I found a scrap piece of carpet that worked beautifully. We got to see Irene & Jelte's beautiful new property at the same time.




In Saskatchewan, we saw an odd looking vehicle on the road. As we approached, we noticed the licence plate was from BRAZIL!!!!! And, we thought we were travelling far...




Well, Saskatchewan has lots of flat and empty land, tumble weeds blowing across the road, road kill here and there, and HOT temperatures. It was plus +32 celsius here yesterday.




We enjoyed a good sleep, and had breakfast with Henry & Suzanne, and their kids (Caleb & Sarah), and Suzanne's mom -- Anita. Caleb & Nathan played like long-lost buddies, and made plans to 'play' again tomorrow. Sadly, we won't be here.
