Home Sweet Home

On July 3rd we arrived home in Victoria after just over 10 months of travelling. Ben was overjoyed and kissed the floor of the airport. Dave’s Dad and Sister were there to greet us. Our cat Sammy did not quite know what to make of us thinking he had been abandoned and not expecting to see us ever again. It was Dave’s Birthday (the big 50) on July 5th. This was celebrated with a traditional Gardner porridge fight on the beach in front of Dave’s parents house.
Now we are readjusting to life in Victoria and sifting through the many memories and thousands of photographs. The summer will be a mixture of sailboat excursions, hockey camps and just plain messing around with the house and garden. Then in the Fall Dave has to face up to going back to work at Kerr Wood Leidal (I almost miss it, well almost.)
Thanks to all who followed this Blog and our travels. This is likely the final entry (except India if Heather ever posts it). The time has flown (except India, sorry Heather). We give thanks to God for this trip, for the many prayers of friends that kept us safe throughout the journey. Over 25 flights without any lost luggage, no stolen wallets or credit cards, no serious illnesses, we were truly watched over and forever blessed on our journey.
Bye for now, Dave, Heather and Ben

Dave and Heather enjoy a welcome home cake with friends.
