Canmore layover:

I’ve spent the last few days visiting my Dad in Canmore, AB. The perfect location for a great Canadian send off. It was a pretty sweet adventure fishing for 9 hrs sans port-o-potty, sitting ‘biotch’ on a Harley Davidson, horseback riding through Kananaskis country and making sure my baggage met the weight requirements for international travel. Although I’m moving across the Atlantic Ocean, it doesn’t feel that terribly far away. I usually visit my family once or twice a year, and living in the UK will be no different – it’s pretty much another year in Victoria, B.C. but with funny accents, European access and playing the sexy foreigner card. I’ll miss my friends and family.
