Hi you two. Wondering where abouts you are? Jean’s son lives in Vancouver, and we thought if he is around, that you might like to meet him and his girlfriend. She like Paula is also Portuguese, but I think we already told you that. So if you get this before you leave Canada, write back and we will see if we can get you four to meeting. Hoping all is going great. Love the pictures you post. It is truly an amazing experience for the both of you for sure. Take care and I will write again. The best to you both, Aunt Maryanne and Jean.
