I know I haven't posted here for a while, and I apologise for that!! The week before last was just a whirlwind of confused emotions as you can imagine with my Ouma(grandmother) dying. Everyone that I know here was SO supportive and I really appreciated that. My partner in Calgary left me a voicemail expressing his condolences and basically saying that the firm would support me in whatever way it could! Rick was so supportive, offering to have me over for dinner and checking in on me regularly, which really helped to ground me in reality.
I was scheduled to go to Toronto last week for the whole week, which I went on, because it would take my mind off things a bit, so that was good to see a different part of the country and to work on a new client. I had a good time in Toronto, went and saw the beaches area, the downtown area including the CN tower (the tallest tower in the world!!).
After the week was over (it was a short one, as the firm gave Friday off for the last long weekend of the summer) my colleague and I went to Niagara falls, which is about a two hour drive. All I can say is that it was majestic, beautiful and awe inspiring! These peeps say it it one of the seven natural wonders of the world, but I checked it out and - nope! But still got a chance to see one of those this winter - the northern lights!!
BTW in case anyone was wondering - here are the 7 natural wonders of the world.
Mount Everest
Northern Lights
Paricutin Volcano
The Harbour at Rio De Janeiro
Victoria Falls
