And birthdays of course call for cakes...

but also wild adventures in airports, dartmouth, and a big Swiss Chalet lunch!
We drove down to hfx airport to meet laura (mee buzzing the WHOLE way about getting to see laura SO soon :) ) but when we arrived we saw that it had been delayed... not arriving at 11pm but now at 11:25. Oh well a little delay I can handle. We got coffee, met kim to pass on some cookies for the bake sale, and got comfy to wait. Then we see, not arriving till 11:50, 1:05, and then 1:20. Then my phone starts to ring, and it is Lauras mom. Laura had to get off the plane, the brakes weren't working. Oh my, you'd think they woudl have checked this out BEFORE it was time to leave. So Lauras mom wonderfully tracked down a hotel room for all of us to crash in for the night (because we coudlnt' find anything, Halifax was THE place to be!) hee hee but some people couldn't wait to crash...

So we finally got to see Laura, grabbed her "cases", and headed to Dartmouth. I was ready to wow laura with my great direction skills, as I had studied this for a good 2 hours but we STILL managed to get lost. The iPhones GPS saved the day and we rerouted to the hotel. We crashed, slept in and stopped in Truro for a great meal at Swiss Chalet!
