• Thunder Bay cont...

  The reception was fun. Open bar, so that's good. Although I think the more hick side of the crowd just sat around and drank as much as they could in order to take advantage of the good deal. I spent the first half of the night polishing the floor with my family. You probably wouldn't believe if if you've met him, but my father is actually a really good dancer. My sister, much to her disappointment, didn't think any of the fellows were up to her standards. So she had to suffice with dancing avec moi. It was fun though.

  
  

  After my parents went back to their hotel, me and my sister got in with the bridal party (whom we didn't actually know) and spent the remainder of the evening partying with them. Also fun. My little sister had a video camera which I made liberal use of. I'll post some footage once I get my hands on it; it's sure to be funny stuff.

  
  

  The rest of my trip has been fun as well. It's mostly been dedicated to my immediate family. In truth that's why I'm here anyway. I mean, I think the wedding was the first time I had seen my cousin Eric since I was 5. I didn't know he had a girlfriend, let alone a fiance. However, the way I see it, I'll probably be off to another country before long, so I should spend time with them while I can.

  
  

  Really, the only thing I think I regret about this trip, is that I didn't get to see the stars. The stars in Northern Ontario are fantastic. It's far enough north to even get hints of the aurora. But it seems God didn't want me to see 'em this time. Every day the weather was beautiful, but every night it clouded over. Oh well.
