A Canadian Vacation
on The Road Less Travelled (Cameroon), 30/May/2010 09:10, 34 days ago
I spent the last two weeks in Edmonton for a little Canadian vacation. It was a wonderful visit, I enjoyed the luxuries of home– hot water, consistent electricity, high-speed internet, and safe healthcare. The reason I traveled home was a wedding. One of my best friends, Callie Smith, who I have known since grade 1, got married...and I got to officiate the wedding. It was truly an honor to be asked to do such a thing forher and Roy and it all went quite well.Callie's WeddingWhile I was home my mom also surprised me with two out of town guests, Barb and Stacey. It was great to see both of them. And of course Stacey and I managed to get up to our old shenanigans. Meiling and Faizal also come out to Edmonton from Toronto to see me and to visit the mountains. It was great to see them as well.  Another out of town visitor was my god mother gloria who came out to spend a couple days at the beginning of my time back home.Me and GloriaBarb, Stacey, Meiling and my momMeiling, Faizal, Stacey and meNow after two wonderful weeks I am heading back to Maroua. I will have about a week or two in Maroua before I move to Bamenda permanently. Although I am dreading the move, it will be nice to live in Bamenda and to continue my work with IDF.It was snowing as my plane left Edmonton...and it is high 30s in Maroua.
