A Slow Start

Up at 4:15 am to catch the 5:55 am flight to Vancouver from Kelowna.  The kids got up easily and were itching to go.  Cole was vibrating with excitement and couldn't stop smiling.  What a great way to start the journey.  Our cab driver had moved to Kelowna 5 years ago from New Delhi - which the kids realized is where we will be when we go to India - Cole thought this was a lucky sign.  He told us that India is REALLY different from Kelowna.  When he moved to Kelowna he wondered where all the people were as the streets were deserted (and everyone is old!).

Next stop Vancouver Airport.  Dad and Lorraine met us at the Airport and took us out to breakfast in Richmond.  Have 6 hour layover in Vancouver so hanging out...keeping ourselves amused.  Colleen
