Though it's not officially part of the trip, tomorrow we'll arrive in Banff Canada, our first international destination since starting the site.  As you can see on our newly updated itinerary (from the About page), we'll be there from December 4-8th. 

Lake Louise by Topato.

We're both really looking forward to Banff - we've wanted to go for a long time.  I'll have to do some work on a workshop on blogs, but Sachi is pretty much home free to hit the slopes and be a ski-bum (what a loser).  We'll both get to go dog sledding as part of the workshop, something we've never done that should be loads of fun.  It should be a stark contrast to New Zealand in a month or so as well.

 Like Hawaii, Banff will be a time to practice blogging for the big trip.
