Yesterday we went to the US of A for 5 minutes or so, it's something you need to do to "land" ie. get your permanent residency validated; leave Canada and then re-enter. As you can tell the kids had a great time, actually it wasn't so bad, they got free crayons on the ferry and more free crayons from Canadian immigration.
We were their first experience of a new procedure so it took a while (which was ok once we knew that that was why it was taking a while and not because one of our old addresses had been listed as suspect). Well also a bit stressful when the woman doing the training was going "uh uh uh uh!" as they were filling out paperwork (like hearing a gynocoligyst go "oops!") but it was all worthwhile when every single immigration official in the office came and clapped and smiled and congratulated us. Aw Canada.
