A little bit of snow!
This was taken when during a hike on the top of Blue Mountain we did with Mark's aunty. Hiking through the snow is a great way to burn some calories!Hi!
Just a quick entry to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. We hope you have a wonderful time with your families!
We are currently staying in a little country town call Durham- only 2,500 people! We are staying with Mark's Nan. We would write a longer entry about what we have been doing since we've been in Canada but today we are on tight time restrictions as we are visiting Nan's best friend in the next town over! Sorry duty calls!
For Christmas we will drive Nan down to Torronto (about 3 hours from here) to have Christmas morning with Marks aunty Cathy (on his mothers side) and then we will have Christmas dinner with the other side of Marks family, his uncle Barry and his family. So it should be a good day!
We have been house and job hunting. So far we have secured a lovely little studio at the back of a house in Collingwood. Collingwood is a great town on the bay with Blue Mountain as its main winter attraction. It has about 35 runs. Only 2 open at the moment though as there is a severe lack of snow! We have jobs
Durham
This is the main street or as Canadians say this is "downtown" Durham. Nice view! As you can see the main street is buzzing! lined up that are yet to be confirmed, should be sometime this week we hope!
Anyway better get back so we can make the visit on time. We have posted a photo with the only proper snow we have seen so far, we are hoping there will be more very soon!
Have a safe and happy Christmas! Hope Santa is kind! We will write again soon!
Lots of love,
Mark and Susie xox
