I know exactly what you mean about getting over China and getting used to Europe - I keep giving way to cars even at pedestrian crossings and forget to put my seat-belt on! Am enjoying the brown bread and cheese in particular. Anyway, greetings from Venice! Anita

after much testing we decided the best wine for the best price was anything around 2 Euros :) the one bottle we bought for 95c we had to tip most of it out!!

Cool photos Cielle. Glad you and Sarah survived and sounds like you had a fascinating experience. Remember the terracotta warriors in 4th form History? Say hi to Anna and Sarah for me, haven't heard from her in a while:-)

Most alarmed at your food market pic - do they really eat seahorses? how? baked on a stick? with chilli sauce?

Vancouver ? Home? - From: Flying squirrels, Christmas and home time
Jealous you are enjoying home so nicely. I have only ever seen 1 flying squirrel, if its of any use to you it is a place called Lindsay Lake in the Musquodoboit Valley about 6 years ago, during the winter. Anyways, enjoy gods country while it lasts. When you are in Vancouver, give me a ring as a i stay at the Samesun on Granville when not on the road with Moose. Cheers

Ohh it's all so pretty and those flying squirrels are gorgeous too...why are they so endangered? Is it their ecosystem being destroyed? Hope you weren't blown over in the flurries and squalls! Back to school for me today planning!

Cooking here in Mastervegas - From: Flying squirrels, Christmas and home time
Hi Cielle, currently is 22 deg at 8.30am. We've been experiencing 30+ temps these past few days. Heading for Gold Coast on Sat for 16 days - cant wait. Sadly we lost Catriona Robertson on Friday (work forced her out in the end). She's going to be the Retirement Commissioners head Comms person (GW really cant compete)! Keep the blogs coming, and keep safe.

FPP - From: Over in the East
Yes, Canada does use FPP - although interestingly Canada has largely escaped Duverger's Law (that makes FPP create a two-party system) - although a number of provinces (including Ontario) are looking at changing to other systems. Sounds like you are having a good time. What's the difference between a teabag and the All Blacks? The teabag stays in the cup longer! What's the difference between Graham Henry and viagra? At least Viagra gives you a semi!

cute furry No 11 - From: Over in the East
Ohh ... cute furry no 11 just gets my vote - is that raccoon? and the cheese and gravy with chips all piled up together? sounds ghastly. Just for your info you should know that you may not get many responses from any kiwi male for a wee while, most of them are in the depths of despair. For the next few days women have to carry the day here... the weather has also packed a sad along with the men - its not raining cats and dogs more like whales and elephants. Anyway on with your journeys East Canada sounds lovely. mum

Sorry to hear about Emily's pack getting stolen. If you can't trust a safe storage locker then what can you trust? Animals very cute. It sounds like you're having a great time!

I have to agree, I'm starting to look at The Rockies as a possible holiday destination in the near future - it sounds fantastic! Glad to hear you're having a fab time - enjoy it as much as poss before the call of paid employment becomes too strong to resist! Cheers Px

I'm very envious - From: An update at last
Get off your butt and get a job your having too much of a good time! Wow the scenery is spectacular Cielle and I love all the furry creatures that you've met on the way (however I noticed there was no mention yet of a Mountie on the horizon). Freezing, icy cold here, your missing nothing. Keep the updates coming when you can. Fond wishes Michelle

Michelle Carson
- From: Vancouver to Whistler
Hi Ceille Doesn't even sound like WORK is in your vocab anymore. It's -2 here this morning so I feel like I'm in Canada even though I'm not. Not much going on here, Dave left for Aussie on Sunday but failed to say goodbye before he left; rumour flying round here is that Scott Forbes has been managed out of his job and GW are currently looking at restructuring BioWorks. Wayne's been put in charge of it for the time being. Tim B finishes here this Friday and strangely enough Murray is involved in his leaving doo (must be capable of doing it for some but not others ah). Anyway enough, sounds like your having an amazing time over there. Glad you've put the socks, and scarf to good use already. Please keep in touch. Happy travels Michelle

Hey! - From: Vancouver
Hey Cielle! Good to hear you made it there! Vancouver is such a gorgeous city! The squirrels cracked me up as well - and the Americans and Canadians looked at me strange for taking photos of them. The squirrels are pretty well trained, and would run up to me with their hands out for food......so cute! Have fun and take care! :-)

I'm envious already. - Snow capped mountains, Beaches, Stanley Park-complete with its wildlife, and local culture.... What a great start to your journey. I'm glad to hear you are galantly protecting Emily from the squirrels. :) So good to hear from you and keep having fun Ka Kite Ano Catherine

you have arrived - From: Vancouver
Seems like all the technology is working and so did the ticket to Seattle! So that is a few qualms put to rest. I hope you spent the american dollars on lunch in San Fransico. Stanley Park is lovely, I thought the totems were fabulous too. That is where I saw the raccoons roaming around. I had contemplated walking from there to Gastown but hesitated but I am sure you can do it but not so certain about how long it would take. If you enjoyed the totems you would probably enjoy the ones at the UBC museum too. But lots more to see. I suppose there is still a lot of snow around as it is only May. I also presume it is going to take a while to get the bank account and tax stuff organised. Lots on your mind but you are making rapid progress on all fronts. We had the usual sort of weekend out for dinner with the Kaisars and the Whitefords (Sue was sick) and a walk with Dan and Liz on Sunday. I went around for a walk around Oriental Bay and Roseneath on Saturday while your dad went running. Beautiful days here. It was specially lovely hearing from you. I guess that was the highlight of the weekend. We are off to Christchurch on Thursday to check out Andrea and the wedding plans. Till next time take care and enjoy yourself. love mum
