Off to New Brunswick!

Today the family and I are off to New Brunswick.
New Brunswick is the next province over (to the left) of Nova Scotia - where we are currently residing and where we were born and raised.

Why New Brunswick?  Well, Tim has another conference to attend!  Had he not had another conference - we would've been back in Finland by now I imagine.
While I do have some relatives in NB - we will not be anywhere close to visiting them unfortunately!
The weather in NB I hear, is supposed to be nice, hot and muggy (darn humidity!).  Click here for this week's weather forecast in Fredericton, New Brunswick (the capital of NB).

Our plans are to travel this morning (waiting on hubby to finish getting ready and for the baby to sleep a bit more) and arrive there by 1pm or so.
We'll be staying with good friends who live near Fredericton, whom I haven't seen in years!! And meeting up with other friends during our 3 day, 2 nights stay.

From there - we'll go back to New Glasgow (well really - it's Westville) and spend Wednesday night and Thursday -day here....then off we go Thursday night!

We're flying a much faster route from Halifax to St. John's, Newfoundland to London's Heathrow Airport....to Helsinki!
Then that dreaded train ride to Jyv�skyl�!! 3.5 hours and probably a quick 10-minute bus ride from downtown with all our junk and a kid on our back.  Wahoo!

Other than that - we've mostly been pigging out on Wendy's - Tim's favourite being the spicy chicken combo...and me with any sized burger with a tonne of pickles....unfortunately - not everybody understands how much I love pickles - so I simply stick with "____ burger combo with a ____ and extra pickles".  I usually prefer saying it about 4-5x - to really get a tonne of pickles (so I hope) - but it's never -or very rarely, the case.

Alright! Time to wake the munchkin....see you later!
