Donna`s Ramblings

I decided that if my daughter could blog, then by gosh, so can I.
I am sitting at my daughter in law`s dining room table in Charlottetown, PEI. I love this little province - the wonderful old city with the quaint homes and shops; the fresh air, the rolling hills and the winding country lanes. Lucy Maud Montgomery really set the feel of this land when she wrote her Anne books.
I have been here twice before but this is our first winter visit. We toured the coloured lights in the area One display was computerized to dance in time to the music of an FM station. Such fun!
My son came home for dinner and told us that the bridge will be closed to high vehicles soon as there are gale winds in the offing. In fact, I think I hear them starting now.
Jim and I left Brandon on Wedesday, December 15 during a blizzard. The shuttle bus driver was good but even so we had some scary moments. The flights were all delayed and we finally landed after 1 am Thurday, Atlantic time. We watched the carousel go round and round but our luggage didn`t appear. Over to the Air Canada booth we trotted with about 12 other people who wanted to meet their luggage too. No luck, after many phone calls and many promises that our bags were on the next flight, we got the least important one on Friday. It had a lovely ride here though by taxi, as did the next one (Jim`s) later that day. My bag arrived in style early Saturday evening. All was good as I am now reunited with my precious belongings. I wonder what tomorrow shall bring. I will look forward to the new day with a smile.
Cheers from Donna
