Week 25 - Project 365 From Dubai to Canada

This week started in The UAE and ended up with me in Canada. It was a planned trip, although give me the opportunity and I'd hop on a plane everyday and explore somewhere new. 

I've struggled a bit with getting the two photo prompts into one picture this week and I've been a little creative with words rather than images. I was also not able to make Day 168 Jewellery prompt fit in anyway without sounding too corny 'on the Airbus 380, the jewel in the sky' so I just left it out.

Hubby has been away a lot, we've been apart for 3 out of 4 weeks and I'm not returning to Dubai until July 9th. Hopefully neither of us are travelling again until hubby goes to Europe end of August and I join him beginning of September for child 4 of 5 passing out parade.

it took 3 days for me to adapt to Canadian time, waking at 2am and wanting breakfast, despite it not being breakfast time in Dubai. My watch is still set to UAE time so I can Skype with hubby, my phone and laptop automatically reset to local time

This weeks photo prompts will be travel related as I may have mentioned once or twice recently that I'm off to visit @catherine_alwaysaredhead in Canada on Wednesday. I have 2 x 23kg luggage allowance and I've managed to pack EVERYTHING into one suitcase. It was no PICNIC (sorry) but it MAKES ME FEEL GOOD

The average human walks 1320 steps per km. I drove the 1km to the beach, because even at sunset it's too hot in ‪#‎Dubai‬ in summer.

I was going to write the word 'anything' in sweeties as sweeties give me joy, but by the time I 
remembered I only had enough left for joy

I was served breakfast at lunch time and lunch was served at 5pm and another lunch at 10pm just before I landed on Thursday morning according to my body clock but was still Wednesday in Canada somewhere between lunch time and dinner time and at the time of posting its only 2 hours till lunch time where I've flown from in Dubai

Day 170 #onedailypositive #9oClock #fmsphotoaday #BiBs #snaphappybritmums #project365

Todays 9 0'clock photo in a grocery store, boring? no not for me. This is a grocery store in Canada and I'm finding it fascinating to see products I recognise from living in the UK, South Africa and Dubai. I am slightly puzzled by what products are considered to be British and when I return to Dubai in 3 weeks I'm going to see if there is a Canadian section in the supermarkets over there.

Day 171 ‪#‎onedailypositive‬ ‪#‎WhatAmIDoingNow‬ ‪#‎fmsphotoaday‬ ‪#‎friends‬‪#‎snaphappybritmums‬ ‪#‎project365‬ 

I'm in Canada 11,092 Kms from my home in Dubai, I've come to visit my friend @catherine_alwaysaredhead who I met online 3 years ago. I was living in South Africa struggling with my new life as an expat and asked the world of Twitter if anyone would like to be my pen friend. The letters cross the Atlantic every month, although we chat on face book and twitter we still write with family and personal news both good and bad. So when Catherine said she'd live to meet me one day, I booked my flight and 6 months later, here I am.
