Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas from Kelly, Terry and Michael.

We are in Florida enjoying the nice (and maybe not so nice) weather here!

We have been gone on our road trip for almost 7 months now.  We have traveled 17,000 km's!

The 4 of us, Kelly, Terry, Jennifer and Michael, left Terrace on May 31st.  We spent the first month in BC visiting family and friends along the way.  We started to head East on July 1st and took 12 days to get to PEI.

 Jennifer was with us in the RV until July 25th.  She now has her own apartment in Charlottetown and is attending the University of Prince Edward Island.

 We camped in PEI for 6 weeks where Terry's dad and brother Les met up with us to camp for 3 weeks.   We left PEI and toured New Brunswick and Nova Scotia until early September and we were in Lunenberg NS when Hurricane Earl arrived rocking the maritimes!   

We spent 3 weeks in September at our friends, Tom and Debbies, cabin in the Adirondacks in New York state and then went to Terry's dads place in Quebec for all of October.

 We left Canada on Nov 8th and drove straight to Orlando to go to Disney World for 12 days.  We are now at a RV park called Lake Rousseau, an hour north of Tampa.  It is a very friendly RV community here, mixed with some permanent residents and other snowbirds like us.  Most of the people here are retired and everyone is so welcoming to us!  Terry's dad is here to spend the holidays with us.

Michael is enjoying the road trip and he is doing well with his homeschooling.  He gets lonley at times without his sister and his friends from back home, but he is making some friends here with the retired community.  He is their adopted grandson!

Living in the RV together has been a learning experience for all of us.  We have learned how to manage in such a small space and it will feel very strange to be back in a house one day!

We have to be back in Canada no later than May 8th as we can only be in the USA for 6 months.  Not sure what our plan is for returning home as of yet...I do need to be back to work in August!

We hope that you all have a wonderful holiday season and look forward to seeing everyone when we return!

Cheers,  Kelly, Terry and Michael
