Canada

This blog is about my trip to Canada from February till the end of July. The reason I have this blog is that my family/ friends and teachers can read what I have been up to.
I'll write about my preperations, flight, what I have learned at the internship company as well as any side trips.

Arrived

Yesterday was a loong day. Sadly my flight delayed with an hour so I missed my connecting flight to Lethbridge. I was only a few minutes too late >.<
Luckily I had time to Skype on the airport so the 90 minutes passed quickly. But once in the small plane we left 30 minutes later as well due to the snow... Yes, snow. This frightened me a little as they needed to spray anti freeze on the wings and engines. You never know if something goes wrong xD

Finally I arrived in Lethrbidge at 6 pm and Renze and Annetta welcomed me in front of the door.
We immediately headed to a store to buy a new cellphone and I have one now for 38$ (38$ man! xD)

Next to that I have to pay 20$ a month for unlimited text and pay 10 c per minute when phoning. It's not so bad, not when you compare it to the prepaid cards and you will lose your money on the phone after one month already.

We were also looking for a GPS, but those were too expensive. Instead I will probably use Renze's old one which can be updated when I connect it to my laptop.
Tomorrow we will take a look at the rental cars. Not looking forward driving in the snow though xD

At 7 something pm I arrived at their house and I unpacked the gifts. Not soon after I headed to bed as I couldn't keep my eyes open. (Must have been around 8:30pm)

Now I am sitting at the same spot again. I woke up at 7, but went downstairs at 8.
Right now no one is up yet (It's 9:18) besides Erica who I hear downstairs.
Today will be a relaxing day. Will activate my phone, Call my internship, will respond to another room ad as I don't hear anything back from the other one and will read through my internship documents.
