Regina, SK. Canada.

 Last month we had the opportunity to visit central Canada, an area we had not previously been. It was a work trip for Bev and involved a meeting of Aspen Medical personnel from the various global branches (Australia, Great Britain, Canada and the USA). We left Texas at a balmy 80f and arrived in Regina late at night to a somewhat cooler 30f. During our first night there it started to snow and did not stop for 3 days.

Luckily after our last 3 years living in New Brunswick we were familiar with the conditions and had appropriate clothing. Even shopping at Sobeys in winter coats was familiar and fun.

The Aspen Canada office is a converted warehouse that was more recently used as a bar/nightclub. It has been modified into a very modern office space but keeping all the old exposed timber beams.

Following the business meetings in Regina, a number of delegates then flew to Kelowna in British Columbia for a meeting with First Nation leaders. This is the view from the plane as we crossed the Rockies.

It was great to be back in Canada even if only for a visit and we are heading back there (Fredericton NB) for Christmas.

Cheers Ross and Bev
