Success!
So, here I am in fredericton! It is Ace! I got in yesterday, after canoing with my dad with an outfit out of Doaktown for as few hours down the beautiful Miramichi river. the water was really high, so what would have taken 3+ hours took us only two, and we didn't really do much paddling. I took some lovely pictures. And of course my dad was happy to point out lots of place where, had we been fishing, we could have caught some salmons or trouts. Mmmm... Alas I didn't give him much notice on the fishing thing, maybe next time.
After that, we had lunch at the Family restaurant in Doaktown, where we both got to eat some salmon, at least. And then we headed for Fredericton. Despite my constant vigillence, we saw no moose, but we did see a deer crossing the road. We got in around 3, and I stopped in at Lisa's an left a message that I would be back on Monday or Tuesday AM. After that wards, we headed to Charlotte street, where much to my delight I learned Jodie managed to score yesterday and today of work, with Sunday and Monday being her regular days! So Jodies for me the whole time I am here :D yay!
Last night terry came over, and we hung out. I watched part of Batman Begins, and played Five Kingdoms, and went to the store. Today was the market (chicken sandwich and pastry and samosas, oh my! I couldn't find the truffle people but I did have a smoothie) with Stephen. Then we came home and hung out and munched and watched the Apple (finally! it is awesome!). Tonight, I had dinner with Joel's parents, and Bronwen is coming over when she gets off work at eight! Extra yay! tomorrow I will try and see Shan, perhaps, and Lee Hawkins. We shall see.
Anyway, the weather has been lovely and everything, and it is really really *really* great to be here.
*loves*
Oh hell! You know, I started to wrote this to let people know about my new toys! In addition to the cell phone, I now have an Olympus Stylus 710 digital camera (shiny and sweet!), *and* my Toshiba laptop, which they had in stock here. it was funny when I went to buy it, because I'd just found it on the wall when an employee came to ask me if he could help me with anything, and I said 'yes, I want this." And he was kind of taken off guard. I don't think he believed me initially ;) Anyway, it is mine, and it is shiny shiny shiny! :D
