Racing to the finish line

Hey Everyone!
Wow, it has been a pretty long time now since I last wrote an entry and I must say a lot has happened and it would be difficult for me to go back and try to recap on all of it, but the most important thing now is that we are in the Maritimes and we are officially on the home stretch! It is especially nice to be in Nova Scotia since this does happen to be my home province. I had the chance to visit with my friends Hilary and Jon in Halifax this past weekend while Jason stayed up in New Glasgow to fix up the website. It was so good to be back in my favorite city again. I don't know what it is about that place but I just feel completely relaxed whenever I'm there and it definitely helped that I had such excellent hosts who made me dinner every night;)

And now we are headed to "The Rock" which I am pretty excited about because it means we get to take another ferry! (Jason is not so keen on our many boat trips but I look forward to every one of them...there's just something so cozy about being on a big boat!)

It looks like we might be enduring rain for our last couple days of biking but that is to be expected here and I think we might have developed a substantial amount of immunity to it the mentality being, just stare straight ahead and concentrate on the finish line, and if that's what it takes then so be it!

So since this is close to being or is my last entry I just want to say it's been a blast and it's been great to be able to share our experience and hopefully it has inspired a bunch more people to take the plunge and bike across Canada. Keep donating too!
