Up, Up, and Away!
It's 5:30 a.m., and in half an hour I head to the airport and Quebec for Canadian Children's Book Week. I'm excited, and a bit nervous. Today and tomorrow are strictly travel days. I'll get as far as Montreal today, and then tomorrow I'll carry on to Sept Iles and Blanc Sablon on the Lower North Shore of Quebec. School presentations and community sessions begin on Monday and continue through to the following Saturday. There might even be a radio interview thrown in as well.
I shall hop from one community to the next for seven days, and then it's back to Montreal next Sunday. In total I shall have 15 airplane rides, 2 helicopter rides, and 2 water taxi rides. If nothing else, I am definitely going to be well-travelled.
My bags are packed and I'm ready to go.
Wish me luck.
