Hockey Game

We had planned to return home on an earlier date, but when Hoss discovered that the Philedelphia Flyers were playing the Florida Panthers on April 8, the deal was sealed, so we bought a return ticket for April 9.  It was great to be in a rink once again...I guess we are true Canadians!!  The game was fun to watch, there was lots of scoring, but the rink barely half full!  Food and drink were extremely expensive...$6 for bottled water.  We bought and shared a turkey sandwich, 1 bottled water, one Pepsi, for a grand total of $28, parking was $20, but we did get a deal on our seats...we paid $50 for $185 seats.

We arrived in Regina late Wednesday night, and spent the night with Hoss's dad.  The next day we took the bus home, and discovered that Addison had a huge supper prepared and waiting for us!!  What a great kid!!

Our trip is over, but not our memories, or experiences!  We will settle into our old life, back to our comfortable ways, and re-immerse ourselves into family and friends.  The end of a trip is always bitter sweet.  I'm happy to be home, but sad the trip has come to an end!!  My gypsy gene cannot be calmed!! 

                                          The rink is called the BB&t Center, and it's in Fort Lauderdale.





                                         A HUGE jumbotron!
                                          Yeah... we are first on the scoreboard!!
                                         Nice!!


                                           Oh...shutout gone!
                                             Oh, oh!!
                                          Awwww...better!  Also, final score.  Philly has secured
                                          a playoff spot!
                                         A happy group!!

                                        Well done!
