Canadian High Commission party/Weekend pics

We’ve been getting a lot of questions about the Canadian High Commission Party. Well, it was really great. We were one of the first to arrive to the gates which had 2 guards. The house itself was very large and very fancy. They had people in bow ties serving drinks and appetizers, but the fanciest thing of all was the fact that the bathroom sink had working hot water. It was magical.

We met a lot of great people including our “internet stalker,” Catherine. A while ago Catherine had commented on our blog and has been a faithful reader throughout our time here. It made for some very awkward conversation because she knew all about us and we knew very little about her. We laughed about it because it really is a silly thing. To read what she thought of our weird encounter, click here and find her January 12th blog titled, “the reception”.

Finally, a beachOver the weekend Dawn, myself, and the rest of the VSO volunteers went to Corriverton for a birthday celebration. Our friend Cheryl is doing her placement there so we all decided to go for a weekend getaway.

I played cricket for the first time ever and it was a lot of fun until I rolled my ankle and had to wrap my foot in ice. I did score points on the play, thank you very much. It wasn’t until later I realized, we weren’t keeping score anyway. The good news is, this newly acquired disability afforded me time to take pictures!
