Wrapping everything up in Toronto

In and around Canada

Dear family & friends..

Ok let's try this out and we'll have to see if we get to update it while on the road..

We have less than a week left in Ontario and are excited, nervous and happy to start a new adventure. For the next month we will travel a small part of a much bigger dream to drive across the states one day. For now we will stick with the west coast. Starting in Vancouver, we will make our way down to Seattle by train, sing with Krishna Das and explore some underground culture. Then heading to Portland, Oregon to meet up with our dear friends, Lizz & Bryce. After Oregon we will take the train to SF, LONG TRIP, and from there on we will have a small camper with our own little shower and drive through California for about 3 weeks. From LA we fly back to Toronto to pick up our 6 duffle bags and cross the atlantic once again to Amsterdam, our new home, where another challenge is waiting for us. Yeahhh rock & roll, let's get going!

Feel free to leave us some feedback & love ;-)

Longcats en route, ..

my dear longcats... maybe a trip to those oft trodden steps that look out over our world that was as we carried each other in the yesterdays when tomorrow was so far away may the steps of your current journey be energized with the same love that leave our footprints at more mesa forever
