New home for the dog!!

With our move to Canada we decided not to take our dog with us! This was a very difficult decision to make but we felt it was the right decision for him, we have found him a lovely home he is going to live on a farm with a few hundred cows to entertain him! He will be going tonight then on Friday his new owners will be taking him to Wales to a cottage for his holidays!
What better life can a dog ask for!!!

Our move to the Okanagan Valley!!!

We applied back in June 2005 for our permanent residency visas, we got our AOR in Aug 2005 and then the wait begins!!!!
We waited and waited and waited!!
Then in June 2007 we were asked to supply the Canadian High Commission with updated information! The up dates were submitted in Sept 2007 and then we wait again!!! Then on the 18th of Feb 2008 we get this very special brown envelope asking us to go for medicals and pay our residency fees and 30 days after the medical we have to send off our passports for the visas!!!!
Then on the 17th of April we get the visas in the post the flights are now booked for the 28th June!!!
We are going to Kelowna in the Okanagan valley in BC for our new life!
