Our road trip

We took a fantastic trip last Saturday.  We drove over the border into the USA!  It wasn't quite as straight forward as I thought it would be, we had forms to fill in and loads of questions to answer.  All of the officials were lovely and once we'd had finger prints and photos taken we were sent on our way.

We weren't sure where we were going but we had our Tom Tom and a map and we ended up in Watertown, which is only about 30 minutes from the border.  It was quite funny because we use kilometers here but as soon as you cross the border it changes to mile per hour!  Watertown was quite a busy place and had a big mall that we loved!

Coming home was alot more straight forward.  All they did was check our Canadian Permanent Resident cards and send us on our way.  

It is so amazing that we can drive such a short distance and be in the States!  All very exciting and we will be going back to explore more.

                                        

                                    

Also, things seem to be progressing with our home purchase so all going well we will be moving by the end of April.  We are all so excited and looking forward to settling into our own home.  The pictures were taken a little while ago so we can now see grass instead of just snow!
