Back to Canada

Here I am, sitting in a warm house, watching CSI, and petting my cat. It's so nice to be home! Although I am quite lucky to be home. In Korea, we checked the weather to find that there was a weather advisory in effect for Kelowna. I remember distinctly that the day before we left Kelowna on November 27, 2007, there was a snowstorm the night before. We made our journey to Incheon Airport in Seoul and checked our bags in. We were worried that there wasn't going to be enough time in Vancouver to go through immigration and customs. Everyone assured us there would be enough time if we hurried. I was just so excited to go home, so everything I was doing was hurried. I was getting a little frustrated with the flight when it was delayed because of cabin cleaning. Then, I was the lucky one where my inflight entertainment system didn't work the entire trip. That was pretty lame. I tried sleeping, but that didn't go so well. How can one sleep on a plane that is completely uncomfortable? I can't sleep sitting up, and the seat doesn't tilt back so well. I was off that plane so fast when it landed, though we did have to sit on the apron at Vancouver Airport for about 15 minutes because we had to wait for the ground crew....uh huh...

We got to go through to the beginning of the line because of our flight to Kelowna. We managed to get through immigration fast, with one hiccup. Luc's suitcase came out of the plane absolutely demolished. It looked like it was in a trainwreck. Luckily, everything inside came out fine. We busted through customs and made our way to what seemed like the other side of the airport. We arrived at our gate just in time for the scheduled boarding time, but there was no one there No Air Canada employees were at the gate. Turns out, the weather advisory was delaying things. Eventually someone showed up and let us know that the captain would try to land in Kelowna, but we may have to turn back due to back weather. I just wanted to go home.

As we were waiting to land, I had a choking anxious feeling. I knew that everyone was going to be at the airport, and I was so excited to see everyone. Luc was acting so calm, but I was almost bouncing out of my seat, I swear I was the first one up out of my seat when we landed and was raring to get out of the plane. I walked as fast as I could to get to the arrivals. I was so fantastic to see everyone at the airport, thank you for being there! It is so amazing to be home. I missed things.

I went to Walmart today and was so overwhelmed by the choices. I stood staring at the body washes for awhile. There's so many! I can't wait to go to a grocery store, where I can get ful fat, half fat, non fat anything. It's going to be crazy.

Tomorrow I head to Vancouver to help out dad. There's somuch happening, and so much to do, I don't know where to start, or where to go. Now I have to figure out what to do with myself. Where do I begin?
