The end is nigh and the travels are about to begin.

Sunday of my last full weekend in RDL and I have done nothing. I've mostly been drinking tea and eating (dunked) choccy biccies. I also stubbed my toe yesterday and it still really hurts but not so much that I think it could be broken. For one thing, I can walk but flip-flops are out of the question.

Ella is getting to Montreal today. I get there on Wednesday. I really need to be more productive today to make sure that I have sorted everything out before I leave as it will be eleven days before I'm back in Wolf Creek, and then I'm only here for a couple of days before leaving POUR LE BON

I have found someone kind enough to offer me a place to live in Sheffield which makes the return a lot less stressful and therefore infinitely more fun. But that doesn't diminish my sadness about leaving here. I've had such an amazing year. I've done things I never imagined I would and it has all turned out so well. There are also people here who I'm really going to miss. 

It is official. I've booked my flight home. I've also got transport sorted from Montreal to Halifax, back to RDL, from Toronto to Vancouver, back to Edmonton, then Saskatoon before returning to Montreal. Yes there is a gap between RDL and Toronto but that's not up to just me so we'll see. My bank account is crying. I just hope I've got my sums right.
