....Canada, eh

We arrived on Thursday, and its C O L D and there is strange white stuff all over the ground which the locals are calling "snow" ! ;D

Its been a pretty stressful and busy couple of weeks leading up to leaving UK, and I think we are in for another stressful time now as we are trying to find somewhere to live and get settled, but we are really glad to be here as this has been 5 years of planning and dreaming. The kids are loving the snow and the youngest keeps throwing himself on the ground every chance he gets to make a snow ~~demon~~ angel ;D

Hope everyone is well and will try to get back to checking in more often. Hopefully I will soon be able to get back to tumbling but obviously walls and roof are the top priority to buy at the moment !

Welcome to the other side of the pond- Now over here we drive on the WRONG side of the road- so be careful- oh and we call it gas- not petro, and it's the subway- not the tube (or is Canada calling it the tube?) oh and that white stuff- well it tends to make simple things very complicated (like driving, walking, staying warm!) Also- DO NOT EAT THE YELLOW SNOW!!! LMAO- Welcome Rose-

I can't tell if thats some Gneiss Schist, or that Schist is Gneiss. All I know is don't take it for Granite
