Guessing Time's Over . . . .

Niko, Gito and MSEH have correctly guessed "what we got". Good job, Folks.

Our attorney's office advised us yesterday that they had received the request for our passports from the New York Consulate. Once we get them to New York, the visas will be issued and returned to us with a date to land by.

Yippee!!!

We flew the Maple Leaf over Jolly Bay today to commemorate the occasion.

I am updating our Timeline as we speak. Looks like a two + year process is about to conclude.

'Bout damn time . . . .

Thanks, Gito. It'll be great to follow the rest of "the family" over the border.

Wish there were other blogging-folks on the journey behind us that we all could follow, eh?

Celebration is definitely in order!

You bet, CC. How 'bout a "Spring Fling" at our place or yours??

Yea!!!!! A week full of good news. And, yes, where are those who will come next?!?

What are your plans now?

Congrats guys! Welcome to Canada!

West End Bob said...

MSEH & Niko,

Thanks for the well wishes, also. We're looking at an April or May '08 landing, assuming the CIC gives us some time to land.

Looking forward to joining the "Cool Kids" soon!

OOps, nevermind I see you posted it.

Thanks again, folks, for the well-wishes.

We're looking forward to completing the journey . . . .

Hooray!!!!!

Congratulations!! I'm so happy for you.

Sorry for the late post, as always. Whenever I'm absent for a few days, something happens! (If I were superstitious or egotistical, I'd say I should stay away more often...)

Congratulations again. This is excellent news.

laura k said...

PS guys (everyone), I know lots of folks who are still in the process. They aren't blogging, but they're coming!

Oh! So exciting!

Can't wait to meet you, perhaps as soon as sometime next year, in your new hometown. (I'm there often.)

Excellent! Fantastic! Finally! Congratulations! Hooray!

You guys have been sooooooo patient. I'm so glad the moment has arrived.

West End Bob said...

Thanks again, all. We are very happy that it appears we'll be North of the 49th soon.

IP: We will definitely let you know when we're in The West End for a more extended period. We'd love to get to meet you in reality vs. virtuality!
