She Who Seeks Meets Life by Chocolate and vice versa: Lucky Me!

Dear Sillies,

You guessed it. Well, Mike did!

I had the honor of meeting Canadian Goddess (oh don't argue with me, HRH!), Debra She Who Seeks. 

So much joy! We had a great time chatting away face to face - in  Calgary, Alberta Canada. 

If you ever get a chance to meet up with another bloggy, I highly recommend it. There's nothing like in-person interactions.

Oh Canada, How I Love and Miss You So! Alex and Pat are almost winners!

Dear Sillies,

WINNERS or ALMOST WINNERS are Alex J. Cavanaugh and Pat Hatt! These blogland stars narrowed things down to Canada and in particular, its Western side. Yes. 

Now, where specifically did Robyn go? There are two airport cities in neighboring provinces, one for my connecting flight. 

Canadian airport city of ---------.

I then flew to another airport city, -------, one province away.

Weather was spectacularly sunny and cloudy with refreshingly light rains. 

Here I met face to face with a fun and witty bloggy. To be revealed.

Third, I flew to my ultimate destination.

I'm here in the area of my ultimate destination. On a tour bus to this famous Lake (Psst "Canadian famous" isn't worldly famous, so you might not have heard of it), the bus driver pointed out Mount Edith on Mom's BDay. I've since pieced together that my dearly departed Mom, Edith Stern Engel, was named after this same Edith. Hugely exciting to learn this. Edith Cavell, heroic nurse, and my beloved Mommy share a brave, saintly, angelic spirit.

Mom's from this province. Her BDay is one day before mine. I connected many dots during and since this wonderful venture.

Okay, I've given too many clues. What Canadian provinces did I bounce around? What Canadian cities did I visit? Where was my ultimate destination, and...which bloggy did I get to spend time with? Drumroll please...

Where in the World Did Robyn Go?

Dear Sillies,

Let's play a game. I'll drop clues. Guess where I travelled to from June 22 to July 1. Name the one or two cities I visited and the country. If you already know, as a few of you do, kindly toss out a fake guess to help throw off the others. Thank you.

Hint 1: I spent approximately 8 hours total (round trip) in the air. 

Hint 2: I met with a bloggy who drove approximately 5 hours round trip to visit with me. Photo proof shall be revealed in an upcoming post.

Hint 3, 4, and 5: 

View from a tea house after I enjoyed a yummy quinoa veggie bowl. 

Beet latte, because it's pretty and on the menu at a trendy little coffee shop.

Cockamamie: John Hancock Erotica

Dear Sillies,

Oh, I have so much to tell and show you. Just returned from a vacation, and got the privilege of meeting another bloggy IN PERSON!

While away, in hotel room #276, I finished this one. It's time to salute John Hancock. 

Wherever you live, may you experience gratitude for your many freedoms. Enjoy.
