Okay, so maybe it’s not Lily but the people who get me through…they know who they are!

This one was maybe the most difficult so far – I would have to say that all my photos are my most treasured item – all my memories of holidays, friends and families, events…I love them all!

I’m not sure how exactly you choose one favourite memory but this is definitely a recent highlight. Getting to interact with the deer on Miyajima was amazing.

But I also have lots of happy memories of sleep-overs with HM as children, nights out with LP and lounging at home with Lily and Hof.

I have known my bestie since 1981 – so a pretty long time! We grew up together, we went to camp, dances, Canada day and all kinds of other activities together and through it all she was my best-friend. I went on my first solo transcontinental trip to visit her when she was living in Ireland. Even though we live in different cities now whenever we get together I feel like I’m with more than just a friend, a sister. Speaking of sisters – I am blessed to have so many sisters to go with my friends who feel like sisters. Without these ladies I don’t know what I would do! xo

So my recent trip to Japan has left me a little bit still on holiday from my blogging.  So after reading my cousins start of the 30 day challenge of photos so I thought what better way to end 2o10 and go in 2011 while getting me back on track with some of my hobbies.

So it’s been over a month since my last posting – thanks for the emails and messages of concern, I am alright but I took a holiday, the trip of a lifetime to Japan and decided that while I was gone it was going to be a real holiday, no blogging; just traveling and enjoying every minute.
I am back now and recovering from the 14 hour time change and preparing to start blogging again with stories and photos from Japan. It was amazing – like no where else I’ve ever been and I look forward to sharing it with you!
Cheers!
