Toronto blog entry #4


had an indescribable week in Eastern Canada, not only because we (parents, rest of tour group and me) visited so many places, but everything we took in - from the landscape to the culture and so much more - was breathtaking and refreshing. i was reminded of just how big "Kanata" is, and how little time we usually spend to appreciate all the individuals and years that were spent building it into what it is today - truly a home where we are free.

i guess my only regret was leaving for the tour the morning right after my uncle's family arrived. but we did have a hilarious, fun-filled, enjoyable time the previous evening - just sitting around gabbing about everything and nothing, sharing memories and laughs, scaring ourselves silly with John's crazy FF-like game, and of course, Skype-ing with our beloved grandparents, who were delighted to see all their North American grandchildren and children gathered together.

i have a few more days here in Toronto with my extended family, though my parents end their vacation tomorrow. and my cousins will return from their own tour of Montreal and Quebec City tomorrow evening, so i am excited to see what the next few days will bring. :) may He be the inspiration to create not only 'fun' memories, but ones that draw each one here a bit closer to a personal knowledge of Him as Creator and Best Friend.
