A little bit of this... A little bit of that :)


Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Hello everyone!
We have just arrived in Barcelona Spain!
I am sorry I didn’t write you in Portugal I thought I did, but it appears it got deleted from my blog, anyways so ill try and repost it, but in the mean time how is everyone doing?
Hope all is well in Canada, or North America for that matter.
I am a little more homesick today then I normally am due to the fact that Thanksgiving is a huge deal in my family and everyone comes down and eats a lot of amazing food. I am missing mommy’s turkey and all the assortment of pies!
For the past couple days I have been exhausted I did someone else’s night watch and I was on galley, and when your on galley you only go to classes and galley and that is it, I did all the watches as well so my shunt has been pounding the last couple days due to the lack of sleep. We all hard core studied for our psychology quiz today, don’t know how well I’ll do on that, but who knows. The wind levels haven’t been that great so we are using the motor a lot which is so loud and gives me the biggest headache. My shunt is just trying to figure out how to cope so far I haven’t complained or even took Tylenol, maybe that’s a mistake but Spain will be amazing! I can’t wait to eat the amazing food, shop and sight see! Train is also performing tomorrow ah! (yes we might be going get excited for me!) Next sail is only a 3 day sail, and I am getting so much more excited for it because I get to see my parents! Ah so excited to see you mommy and daddy! I miss everyone a lot.
Grandma, and anyone who wrote me letters or would love to write me some please give them to Nora, mom, or dad the letters that were written I misplaced more like someone threw them out. I was pretty mad about that, so can you if it won’t take to much time write up some more pretty please? J
Mail and things from home are always welcome J
We had a swim call in the middle of the Mediterranean where we stopped the motor and everyone jumped off the boat it was so much fun! We probably won’t have another or if anyone maybe one more. The water has to be completely calm for this to occur due to safety reasons. We also weren’t anchored down so drifting can become and issue as well. Anyways it was so much fun, only problem was I just showered like an hour before then got incredibly salty, but oh well was worth it! I miss my bed have to say that I miss rolling over and not hitting the floor every time this occurs.

I will write more soon!
Lots of Love

  1. Thanks Janer for the update - I love to read your stories. I am sorry to hear about all the cards getting misplaced - are you missing everyone !!!
    Things are great here - we had a wonderful Thanksgiving at Mom and Dad's and missed you a lot. Everyone is very busy - Greg in hockey, Kelsey in volleyball and Meg is golfing in OFSSA this week (hope she wins). Nolan is busy practicing and Elissa has been doing a lot of babysitting. Let me know what food I should send with Mom - don't make it too big - Mom will not be able to get it on the plane. Talk soon. Love Grandma XX 00

  2. Hey Jane,

    Glad to hear the trip is going well. You didn't miss much at Thanksgiving, the turkey was dry the gravy bland, the pies terrible, the stuffing burnt, the potatoes lumpy. The worst Thanksgiving ever!! Well not entirely true. The food was excellent as always, but it was the worst Thanksgiving ever because we missed you!!

    Enjoy Spain!!

    KCEN!!
