Blogging is a wee bit overdue!!!

So what can I say. A lot has happened since my last post ... WOW, has it been 6 months already?!

Here's a recap:

--> Went back to Dubai.

--> Resigned my job.

--> Sweetie came to UAE to help me move back to the motherland.

--> A short (but nice!) stay in Frankfurt. Back in time for Easter

--> Two weeks with my family.

--> One weekend in Yellowknife with my friend (lots of creature sightings: a porcupine, deer, buffalo, a little beaver, a big black bear (will post the video soon) and a mama black bear with her little cub (didn't have my camera with me for that one ... grrrrr!)

--> Packed all my worldly possessions into my little cargo trailer (that took more effort than one would would expect: my baggage was held at Heathrow Airport in Canada Customs purgatory for about a week!)

--> Drove the 12+ hours to the lovely metropolis of Grande Prairie, Alberta and I have now officially taken up residence there with my Sweetie. (Yes, the Dubai - GP culture clash has taken some getting used to.)

So To-Do-List item #54 "Explore the World" has come to an end for the time being. The itch to travel is still ... well, itchy, so there will be more worldly adventures in the future but probably not of the overseas residence variety. There are still more places to see and things to do than there is time and money. More mountains to climb, languages to learn, passport stamps to be had.

What's the next item on the infamous 'to-do' list? Not sure yet. In the mean time, I have 6 months' worth of blog posts to catch up on!!!
