Canada!

Needless to say, the trip was very tiring. The second flight from Charlotte to Seattle was like 6 hours long, and I hadn't slept well the night before. The time difference is 3 hours, so I'm a bit jetlagged. After seeing Claudia and her husband, aunt Silvia and aunt Santiago came all to pick us up, it was very exciting to see them all. We left the airport at around 10:00 PM, Western Time, and the car ride was about three hours long, so that means we didn't get to Canada (Surrey, in BC) until 1:30 AM. Since my grandma and aunt Cecilia couldn't leave (They had to get a special visa for Canada, and getting out and then back in would have been a hassle), we just met them here at the house, as well as Silvia (My cousin, the bride-to-be). We were trying our best to not wake them up and be as quiet as possible, but of course, as soon as we opened their bedroom door, they got up immediately. All of us women were up talking for about 2 hours, laughing, chattering, and just having bonding and reliving old memories, it was truly special.

It's my aunt's Cecilia's birthday, so I'm sure we will do something to celebrate.

OK, out to buy soymilk and some vegan edibles for my stay.

P.S. - The weather here is AMAZING, 68 F! The young couple who I sat next to in the plane (they were coming back from their honeymoon) have just convinced me to move to the Pacific Northwest!

Awesome weather = RUNNNNNNNNNNING!!!
