Going back home

We left by bus on August 13th in the morning. Since we were arriving in Moncton before noon, and the train was only at 5:20, we checked in our big suitcases and headed off to Crystal Palace for a bit of fun!



Maelie called it the FUN park because she said it was so much fun! She enjoyed the rides and especially loved the roller coaster! She went on it over and over and over.




We had some lunch, did some more rides, and soon enough it was time to cab it back to the train station.


Maelie slept well on the train. We unfortunately were 2 hours behind so we missed our connecting train in Montreal and had to wait an extra 3 1/2 hours. They gave us free lunch vouchers so we at least sat down and enjoyed a nice meal. Maelie was just too excited to get home and see her daddy so she basically didn't eat!



Once home, I could barely muster up the energy to speak! We had supper, and relaxed. Maelie spent time with her daddy, and swam with Tristan. Our pool was at 83 degrees, but I couldn't even muster up the energy to go in! I would have fallen asleep in it for sure! I think the fatigue from the whole trip was catching up to me. I am still recuperating as I type this!

Back to reality.... back at work on Monday, and only 2 more weeks of summer vacation!

I must say that our trip was well worth it. We enjoyed our familiy tremendously and the train was quite an experience. Maelie is an absolute pleasure to travel with. She is patient, and knows how to amuse herself. She did not whine or complain. She knew some of the waiting was out of our control and we just had to make the best of it. I love her so much and I am extremely proud of her!
