I'm off....

Finally, the time has arrived for me to begin my Canadian escape! The time seemed to drag by but it's finally here. So, despite the aches and pains of this carpal tunnel/ulnar nerve tension/arthritis thing I've got going on, I venture forward and hope to have lots of good adventures and good things to write about in my journal.

To combat the superstitious vibes of leaving on Friday the 13th, I've booked a spa treatment as my first "to do" in Toronto....it should be a heavenly way to start off a pricey adventure! My mantra, however, is that if nobody else is going to spoil you, then you've got to spoil yourself every once in a while! That's what this trip is all about.
