I thought u guys would be way to busy and having way to much fun to even think of us boring canadians back at home. The pics are amazing! it looks like something straight out of one of those national geographic tv shows. Even more beautiful than I could have imagined! I just wish I could have come up to visit like I planned. Ive Just had way to much to do here if you can believe it! Anyways It seems like you have been gone forever so maybe your coming home soon??? I hope so! Whenever I plan clubbing outings I always think of phoning you guys but than realize that you are on the other side of the world! how weird is that!!! So when you get back to good old canada give me a ring! I want to see your crazy tan lines and hear all your stories.
