Actually sitting here and writing this stuff out makes me realize how lucky I have been to be able to travel so much in my young years. I am sure that you noticed it slowed down once I knew that I was getting married. I guess that is what happens, we have to start thinking about other people than ourselves.

Going to Ste. Anne was most likely the most fun that I ever had traveling somewhere. Mainly because it was a 6 week vacation from reality. I wish that I could still be working over there during the summers, but like I was saying earlier, I have to think about other people now.

One of the things from Ste. Anne that I am thinking about right now is the time that I told Kristen, Laura and Audrey that I was NOT going to be there for the summer that they were going as students. When they arrived at the university it was about 1 or 2 in the morning and the Louisiana crew is coming in from their long bus ride to the campus. I was standing there looking at Kristen and when we met eyes she was VERY CONFUSED. I think that she did a "triple take". Once she knew that it was me, she started to beat me up with her pillow. It was worth seeing her reaction to realizing that I was working that summer.

I could go on and on forever about my Ste. Anne story's. I am going to spare you though. If you are reading this and you went to Ste. Anne, write me a note about things that you remember.

I love to travel and I look forward to many more trips to different places around the world!
