This is the morning before we leave, thinking things over in my head, and I am increasingly anxious. We arrived in Halifax yesterday, catching a ride down with Melanie's cousin Natasha. We arrived around noon and spent the day walking around Halifax. The best part of the day was when Melanie and I, went to eat lunch. We went to eat at Bubbles Mansion, a restaurant run by Mike Smith who plays a character called Bubbles in a TV show called the Trailer Park Boys (for those who don't know). Anyway the restaurant had various outfits and things from the show, on top of that the food was really good. While we were there Bubbles was actually hanging out in the restaurant, so it was lucky we were there when we were. I didn't go say hello or anything, but it was cool to see him.
Today, we plan on getting a few last minute items and relaxing before we have to go to the airport. I think we have gotten everything, but will probably miss something. Luckily they do have stores in Europe so I am sure we will be alright. Next time I post I will be in Europe!!

Have a good flight. I'm looking forward to reading of all your adventures. Have fun (and try to sleep on the plane).
Heh, Chad said "try" to sleep on the plane... I say try to stay awake when you get there (wicked jet lag) ;-)
Aren't the White Cliffs beautiful? Are you crossing the channel in the "cattle boat" the hydrofoil or the regular ferry?
Enjoy the Eiffel & Arche, see the Dome des Invalides (Napoleon tomb) and stay away from Pigalle :-)))
No trip to Paris is complete without Versailles ;-)
I see you are headed for Madrid too... -be sure and take in El Escorial, and Valley of the Fallen (25km by bus)
