Beijing Bound

Okay we are back from Pembroke and recovered. It's a nice little town right on the river. Not as small as I thought it would be though. We camped in Sarah's mom's backyard and it was my first time sleeping outside where I didn't even need a sleeping bag really. Crazy! Anyway, Ken, Alison, Maggie and I drove up to Pembroke and headed over to Sarah's fundraiser/goodbye party. We had a blast, there was lots of money raised and lots of beer to be had.



Ken and I bid on the Owl Rafting whitewater day trip and won. Yahoo! Can't wait to try rafting, it's supposed to be really fun. In fact I think it's even the same trip that my parents took while they were out here for the electrical conference last summer.



As you can see my hairdresser once again decided to chop all my hair off. So I darkened it to distract myself from the cut.



Sarah's mom had an awesome breakfast waiting for us the next morning and then we had a happy ride back home Sunday morning. A great trip, I felt very fortunate to be included :)

Sarah's race is on August 13 and is the kayak slalom event if anyone wants to catch it.
