11 February, 2007
We went with Benjamin to his hockey practice and then Suzy took us to the airport so that we could sort out our air tickets- what a schlep but she insisted that we sort it all out. This took quicker than we thought and we were now booked for the night flight to Caracas. Rich B played with the boys again and kept them busy whilst Rich M did some work and Suzy and I went off to have a pedicure. We went to watch Josh play his hockey match- wow- these kids can move on the ice. We had to say our second goodbyes to the Maisel clan. We had such great fun with them and they really spoilt us (I think that Suzy thought we hadn’t eaten for 7 months – thanks for everything Suzy – your snacks will come in handy).
Robyn and Coby then picked us up and we went for dinner with them. It was wonderful to see them again and it all worked out well, it was worth the delay in the end! The night was so cold- I think colder than ever and we were really freezing, especially Rich B since he had left all his jumpers and warm accessories with Suzy at the house and I still had my big jacket and Robyn’s gloves although it still was not enough. Robyn and Coby then dropped us off at the airport and we were finally on our way directly to Venezuela.
We were sad to leave Canada because we had a wonderful time with all our friends and skiing but we were happy to be leaving the cold.
