Legends say that hummingbirds float free of time, carrying our hopes for love, joy and celebration. The hummingbird's delicate grace reminds us that life is rich, beauty is everywhere, every personal connection has meaning and that laughter is life's sweetest creation.

On our Way - To MTC.

Had to get some Fijian money before we left.  They have beautiful money, Wendy said "I don't want to spend any of this cause it's too pretty".  The Fijian dollar is $1.61 for every Canadian dollar.   We are hoping the Fijian dollar goes a long way - it will be interesting to see how items and food compare in Fiji.
 We spent the morning finalizing every little thing before we leave and then had time to say good bye to our friends Ray & Sally Pyne ( they are renting our place while we are gone, we love them). Chuck and Sandra then took us to the Airport in Victoria to head to Provo Utah for the start of our training and adventure in Fiji.
Randy & Julie Keyes going to Fiji - they are from our Ward in Victoria - they will serve in self reliance while we will be in Humanitarian Services.
We took a stroll to the BYU bookstore and met up with a famous Cougar so we just had to get a picture together, hehe.  It was good to go for a nice long walk.  BYU of course has a beautiful campus and it's nice to stroll around and see the campus and the great buildings and feel the nice feeling of the wonderful institution of learning the Church has built over the years. 
 Our home away from home for the next two weeks here at the MTC.  They have very nice apartments for the Senior Couples and all your needs are taken care of.  We have a very busy schedule starting tomorrow morning with Church, District meetings, Devotionals, Films and of course Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.  Monday is our official check-in day at 10am and from that point on the week is very busy.
