It will be a long day with two cats in the car on two ferries to my new home...
After about 5 hrs of sleep the clean up, pack up and load up begins. It was wrong to leave as much as I did in my vehicle... Stuff should have gone in the moving truck. I almost did not fit. Or should I say we almost did not fit. But we did fit and my mirrors were all still visible.
I did however decide the rear view was best used to keep an eye on the kids with the side mirrors for the road.
Remember the pictures from the bus in Spain? Remember the pictures from the plane? Well here are too many pictures of the kids in their cage.
Despite my worst fears, leg one of the journey (the 2 1/2 hr drive) went quite well with not too much crying at all.
I guess it would have been nice to make the ferry....oh well more rest time.
Ferry ride one and then drive leg #2.
Apparently I did not buy enough at the good karma cafe- the little kiosk next to the ferry line up. For the first ferry was running a few minutes late and despite my best race car skills ... I missed the 2nd ferry.
I am now the first one on....in two hours!
The kids are not impressed.
I want to say not a peep out of them for drive section #2... But just as my car switched to warp speed while passing on a hill... Diego made a peep. Dora looked at him with a priceless expression. Sort of a 'don't start I already have a headache.'
And we wait. The Powell River kids on their return from Seattle watching the Jays are now playing football.
And my kids are resting.
They get along most of the time....
Dora loves her brother
Now Diego is not sure how he got the job as pillow, but he puts up with it.
And finally!!!!
Right to the front for a view ...?
It is pretty hazy anyhow.
So for those that wonder ....
I have taken a leave of absence from work- 15 months.... To build the small house, enjoy my fruit trees and relax!
But I most likely will not return. I will do something different.
Pretty cool crossing today...
The kids, me, all my stuff....
A new adventure!!
