Snow to sun

We made it....out of blizzarding Calgary all the way to the Baja. And I have been really lazy at updating this so here is another catch up:

• I turned 27 in San Francisco and got ID'd in the same day
• I paid $18 for a mani and pedi in San Fran....how can it be so pricey in Calgary
• Wilfrid seems to be acting better
• Mexican military stops scare me
• My Spanish is atrocious but I try anyway
  
• We rented a house by a world class surf break...it comes with a housecleaner WHA???
• I am going to try and learn how to surf ( I am already imagining burping up saltwater)
• My writing gig might just be working out...though I still feel like I am a sham
• T has not burned his entire body yet
• There are whales right off the coast here so close you could swim out and touch them
• The people here are very friendly
• I feel like this could be a potential home for us

to the Apple master

can you please make Wilfrid, my new mac, behave himself?  i would be ever so grateful.

yours in mac love

kels

somehow it always works out

So this is going to be a speedy catch up since I have been MIA for a few weeks.
Things are going well and we have started out on our adventure down south:

• T and I managed to get just the design part of the job we were offered which means we will work on the road and set up a little apartment in Mexico until June. Once we get final approval on the design work we are free to travel with a bank account that will be a little fuller :)
• I am kung-fu chopped my student loans and am officially debt free HIIII YA!
  
• I finally signed up for Skype
• T and I managed to make all our possessions fit into the spaces offered by my parents
• We also managed to pack the car without everything exploding
• I actually managed to pack my clothes in a bag the same size as T's (I know I impressed myself)
• We left Calgary in a blizzard and managed to hit the highway just as it was opening
• I got a job working for a travel blog that actually pays me to write about our adventure
• And I love Vancouver

So we are on our way and will be heading to the States tomorrow. I am praying that the border officials are nice and that T doesn't provoke them as he often does when faced with figures of authority. I did explain we might need to kiss butt a little to which I received the evil eye and a lecture about "how it is none of their business where we are going..." I am pretty sure they will think otherwise.
