Its always sad when something so anticipated, planned, and then enjoyed, comes to an end, but alas, Life goes on. Got back into Calgary tonight and the cool air was certainly a good reminder of why we boarded flight 783 last week, to get some much needed sun. Seriously, if anybody has it in their capacity or budget to take a week or two off and head down to the Caribbean, I would strongly recommend it. This past week was exactly what I needed, and right now, I do feel slightly tired from the grueling connecting flights, but overall, I’m refreshed and rejuvenated, ready to live my life, and pick it up right where I left off. I’ll be updating sporadically, but just wanted to post this before I went to bed. The last week has seen the following:
