Here I Go!
I'm so excited for this trip! We've been packing for weeks--well maybe not packing, but getting ready. Mum has been planning and planning and planning. Every time she has something decided, she changes her mind again: should we depart from Victoria or should we depart from Vancouver? Should we land in Japan, or go straight to China? Are we going to the Dodge Mahhal (or whatever it is she calls that place--I never quite get it right... but Mum says it's beautiful!), or not? She keeps changing her mind. Daddy doesn't really help because he keeps suggesting new adventures! Oh, but wherever we go, 'twill be so exciting! And when we finally catch up with Miss Belle, it will be the best! We haven't seen her in so long. The waiting is almost unbearable, so I've been exploring the garden, saying good-bye to all the secret spots until we come back, which Mum says might even be as far away as a year! Oh, I'm so excited for this trip! --L
