Oh Canada, Nov-16

My Blog is now international!!!! We crossed the border without hardly a break! There was always a fear that they would make us unpack everything, but thankfully they didn't. There was a small question about one of the guns but it was quickly, and painlessly handled. (Yes Ben we still have the gun^-^). The day went without incident (i.e. Mac puking in a bag), and life was good if a bit cramped.
I am making fast friends with a desk clerk here. I have made three trips to the front desk in the last three hours, little catastrophes but they where still embarrassing. A wet bed, a broken fuse resulting in Mom and Dads room loosing all power and an overflowing toilet. BUT DINNER WAS AWESOME!!!!! Mom made green beans and beef stroganoff, yummy, the dogs got the leftovers! These dogs are getting a royal feast, we couldn't take meat over the border so two minuets before we got there they got what we didn't eat. They got cat food for dinner last night (No American dog food allowed), what dog wouldn't dream of this life? So when we bought Canadian dog food for them and fed them this evening Aleika looked at me like "Are you kidding?"
We had the first "are we there yet?" today, but I think that Sarah was referring to the hotel not Alaska (I hope)! No one has gotten car sick yet (not even Mom).
It started snowing and the road got slick, the trailer started to slide at one point, but Dad got it back under control and nothing else happened. We've made it to the snowy north!
