Bought a Car!

We have finally decided to replace our 15 year old Subaru Legacy wagon with 424,000 km. It has been a great car, very reliable and rarely needed any work other than standard maintenance. We are sad to see it go, but all good things come to an end. So, next Monday we'll be picking up our new 2013 Subaru Crosstrek. We came oh, so close to getting an orange one, but in the end old-fogie ways had us switch to black with cream leather interior. The cream interior looks really nice, and will be better in the summer... but... oh my, I hope we can find some super-dooper leather cleaner!

It will come to no surprise to any that know us that we are celebrating tonight with a bottle of bubbles ;-)

The camper has been de-winterized so is now just an hour (or six ) away from being on the road - maybe Wednesday (fingers crossed).




Happy Tails!

Congrat with the new car. It's probably not that much of a big deal in Canada, but here it's quite an event. Cars are so expensive in our country so it's the biggest investment a family do besides buying a house. So usually the bubbles comes with the car as a gift from the dealer.
Skaal!! as we say in Norway.
