Canadian Candy

Okay, so technically this is British candy. It's made by Cadbury, but every country except America seems to be able to sell this stuff. All we get down here is the Easter eggs that aren't all that great anymore since they changed the filling. Anyway, the point is that this candy was DELICIOUS. To make a long story short, Jason and I ended up with $9.57 CAN to spend before we left the airport, so when we stopped at the gas station on our way to the airport, I grabbed a couple of snacks. This was one of them; I was determined to get something Canadian. And I don't like Smarties, so that was out. So I opted for Cadbury. This is a peanut butter caramel candy bar, and boy is it yummy. It's like a Butterfinger center (only not as sticky or chewy), surrounded by delicious Cadbury caramel, and dipped in chocolate. Oh man. I want some more of these, so if anyone is headed to Canada, you'll be my friend forever if you bring back some of these for me. And just in case you're wondering, no it doesn't say "Wonder Bra." It's "Wunderbar." (And why it has a Viking helmet on it is anyone's guess.)

Headed North

Today we worked a half day and headed to Seattle after lunch. Jason has a job interview in Alberta tomorrow, and we had a flight to catch. The Seattle airport has done a major renovation of their food court. It's beautiful! I don't know when they finished it, but this is the first time I've seen it. The view of the sunset behind all the planes taking off and landing...and the storm clouds moving in...it was fantastic.


The decor was very tasteful, and the place looked clean and new without looking overdone. We enjoyed a drink from Starbucks while passing time until our flight boarded at 9:30.

As for tomorrow...BEST WISHES, JASON!
