Tomorrow I am leaving for "Old" Quebec City, a city in my country that I have wanted to see for some time now!! By the time I arrive I'm sure that I will have a very sore butt!! (10 hour drive) Garmon better not make any mistakes...haha! At this time of year the colour should keep me amused while travelling.
I am taking my lap top so I wont be a total stranger but I do plan on getting the most I can out of this trip! Old Quebec is rich with history and I plan on going back in time, just as if I was in the classroom only this time I will have the story in front of eyes and not out of a text book!!
I hope all my friends have a fun filled weekend and to my Canadian friends...have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING WEEKEND filled with love and gratitude around your dinner table as you celebrate this holiday weekend with family and friends!! xoxo
Hey Melody, thanks for your comments. I hope you're singing with your new lungs soon! I wonder how many singers have had a lung tx? Might you be the first?
