Well I called CBP this morning and the lady on the phone said that I can do my POE and come directly back to Canada for a 'short time'. That way my belongings are able be shipped before I move by 6 days. I feel relieved, but at the same time worried, because what if the lady was wrong wacko.png So now my POE will be July 12 and I will fly home the following week on July 18!

My grandparents lived in Nanaimo so I've been there quite a bit. My aunt and uncle still live there. :)

Bring me some Nanaimo bars....good.gif

I've brought nanaimo bars to a few potlucks down here and they are always a big hit. It's kind of funny to me watching people try to pronounce the word Nanaimo though. It shouldn't be that hard :)

Well I am an hour North of Nanaimo in Port Alberni. Yeah the ferry sucks. But such is life... At least I only have to take it when I come home to visit once or twice a year after I move.

Then it will be FUN instead of OMFG I HATE THIS FERRY!! biggrin.png

EXACTLY! And BC Ferries is becoming super ridiculous... Last night on the news there was a story about a 20 yr old girl who was 10 CENTS short paying for her ticket off the Island. So they wouldn't let her on and she had to stay the night in Nanaimo....

OMFG had I been in the line around her, I would have just paid for her. No one close by had 10 cents to give the poor girl?
