Summer: Part 1

Part One of the G.E.M Summer Adventures 2009 has now come to an end. Matt and Gabriela had a fabulous time in St.Catharines with family and friends. The weather wasn’t the best, but it was great to catch up, relax a little and, most importantly, eat strawberries.

The transition to Part Two was great fun as well. The three of us spent the weekend in Toronto – riding the streetcar, visiting Kensington Market, walking around downtown, eating Vietnamese soup and, Gabriela’s highlight, visiting as many parks as we could. If Canada only consisted of parks and splash-pads, Gabriela would be more than thrilled to make this her full time home.

Part Two involves being apart for part of the next few months. E and G are staying in Canada with visits to Toronto, Winnipeg, Fargo (ND), Kitchener, Sarnia and probably a few other locations. This will include visits to family and friends, teaching pre-natal yoga, eating strawberries and all other local bounty, dance camp for G, and, of course, the parks. Matt is back at work in Haiti.
