Ready

Mmmkay, all packed (mostly by Sandra), got all my techno gear, cameras and whatnot packed too. Got all the leads and extensions and USB stuff and chargers and my laptop and all that great stuff sorted out. The "blokey-bloke" stuff.

Haha got the gonk too.

Kinda nervous to be honest. I was reading some old emails today I'd sent to my mate Jeff when we first started talking about holidays in Canada. We were discussing various aspects of the trips we were going to make (this was before he ended up having to cancel his plans). Our flight was booked in August last year. I booked our tickets to the Calgary Stampede, as well as our hotel in Calgary, in September. This whole undertaking has been the best part of a year in the planning, and now here we are, just a few hours away from my mate Tony picking us up and taking us to the airport.

In fact... this time tomorrow, we will be landing at Calgary.

It's an awesome thought, and I'm quite daunted by it. It's unreal. All the places I've read about, all the things I've researched, it's all just 24 hours away.

I hope it all comes together. She'll kill me if it doesn't.
