I just needed to share this with you guys!! wink.gif We are taking a "secret" trip to Canada (not telling my family about it, just going to show up at my cousin's 40th birthday) this weekend !!! I'm so excited to touch CDN soil again and to go SHOPPING!! Yipee!!! We're only going as far as Fredericton, so not to my dear Island, but I'll take what I can get!

I'm going to Pizza Delight too and pigging out on Donairs!! Mmmmmmmm

Tee hee.. well NB isn't the BEST place for Poutine but if hubby can have another go at it I'm sure he'd like to!!

I will be stopping at Timmy's but I have to say (PLEASE don't ban me from the CDN forum for saying this), Dunkin D's beats Timmys' hands down with D'nuts & bagels!! I will do a ice cap though.. mmmmmmmm (stopped drinking coffee 2 years ago) = AGAIN DON'T BAN ME PLEASE!!!!!

Er, what good is a Timmy's if you don't drink coffee? Although, if you have abandoned Ice Caps, there may be repercussions. mad.gif

when my hubby would come up to visit we would just stay in Vancouver instead of going back to my town... anywho, we would eat at Tim Hortons's a lot... I liked their meal deals... Drink, sandwich and a soup... or something like that..

Have a great trip!

I surprised my friends and family with my first visit home after I moved to Canada 5 years ago.. It had been 9 months since I had been there and no one except my mom knew we were coming.. It was so much fun to see everyones reactions when we just showed up on their doorsteps!

Im sure youre family will love the surprise too!! Have fun!

Awww, have a GREAT trip and safe travels smile.gif

I'm so excited today I can't do anything at work!! AHHHHHHHH smile.gif

Hubby is all "excited' about going to Canada Day celebrations on Sunday.. tee hee.. my bf & I were laughing about it this am saying he's in for a rude awakening!! In Frederiction, they have some sort of "law" passed that for the parade there are no motorized vehicles allowed, no inflatables nata! So he'll really be floored when he sees that!! Plus July 4th is much bigger, much more patriotic, I think hubby is going to be sadly dissapointed whistling.gif

Enjoy your visit Make sure to take in some of the live Canada Day music events and the food venues
Those are the best part of the whole Celebration

We are back in CT now sad.gif But we had a WONDERFUL Canada Day!! Hubby's comment on the celebrations was "it's like a whole bunch of people showed up at the same place at the same time and said.. oh well we're all here, let's party then!".. tee hee.. He's so smart! smile.gif


We had a great time at home.. so nice to be back, even nicer to realize that no matter how much I love my country, I love being with hubby more smile.gif My home is with him!

Oh yes, forgot to say POE in and out of Canada was easy easy! They actually gave USC hubby a harder time than I (not a very hard time at all mind you).. a quick peek in our trunk on the US side, and we were on our way! Greencard worked no worries!

Glad to hear you had a great time! star_smile.gif

Glad it was a good time!!! There are no Canada Day celebrations going on where we live, but they are having some fireworks displays tonight so I have told my hubby that is really for Canada Day, not for the 4th of July smile.gif
