Good Morning well my husband landed April 17th. I flew from Yukon to Toronto to meet him. I was able to call him while I was in Vancouver he had just made it to montego bay. we talked until I went on the plane to Toronto. I was so nervous I think more so then him. I arrived in tornoto 30 mins before him. I waited at international arrivals the longest 45 mins of my life. I saw a lot of Jamaicans come out thinking he would be coming along soon and then it thinned out. Finally saw some Jamaican tourist and thank goodness he told me what he was wear. I finally saw him come out he looked confused where to go just stood at the top looking for me. I walked up to him and gave him a hug and cried. He was like why are you crying I told him I was just so happy. we stood there for a few minutes hugging and kissing while everyone around us watch lol then we went to check his bag on to our next plane to Calgary. I would fall to sleep and wake up to see if he was still there, smile and go back to sleep I think I did that 3 times. we spent Easter weekend with my family in Calgary. It was great he got a long with them so well. there was 14 of us who went out for dinner the day after we got there. 6 of us under one roof 3 cousin who are like brothers and sisters. they loved him. We went up toward Banff so we got to see snow, sunday night we flew to Victoria stayed there until Wednesday then ferry to Vancouver where we stayed until sunday. after 10 days we flew home. We have been home since sunday night and so far so good. there has been a lot of first and I just love seeing them all. He has tried turkey, sushi, moose and caribou meat. Flying for the first time, ferry ride, sky train, drove in Canada. He has got to feed wild seals in Victoria, vancouver aquarium, malls.
He is just waiting on seeing a moose and bears lol He has how ever already helped cut up moose meat.
I am amazed on how he is coming along. he is talking everything like a champ. Usually he is very shy and not up to meeting people but he has really surprised me with who he is now. he has meet some many people, even went to the gym a couple of times with me and played soccer the other night and most likely again tonight or maybe try road hockey. Its great having a partner to do everything with. We cleaned the yard last night, showing him around here. he is totally comfortable walking around by himself here. He is even getting along with my big 130lbs dog... well better then I thought he would be.
we are having a BBQ may long weekend where people can come and meet him. I cant wait. I am just enjoying every minute of it!!!! Grin It still feels surreal
So worth the wait trust me. we have had our ups and downs and at some points ready to give up but after all that I am so glad we toughed it out because this feeling right now is amazing.
What an Awesome landing story and beautiful pics! Best wishes on your new journey.
