Frenchy's and Sally Ann are lighter because of us!

It's our last day in Sackville and we've had a few more adventures to report. Yesterday began with a self-directed ballet class (Catherine, our ballet teacher would be proud!) at the university fitness centre and then we headed back to Patterson's for a classic diner breakfast (guess that cancels out the ballet class!)

After that, we stopped back at the hotel to drop off our sick little Mel (seems she always gets a cold while we're on tour...there's something suspect about that...) to get some sleep and Carolle to slog away on the operating grant appendices. That's a full-time job in itself!

Sarah, Tania and I then took off on a cross-province adventure (meaning we drove back to Nova Scotia, to go to Amhearst). We'd been told that the second-hand shopping was something to write home about (and as you can see I'm doing that, so they must have been right!)

We started off at Guy's Frenchy's and wasted no time jumping into the 2-for-1 bins. We were also shopping for Carolle too, so each of us were constantly pulling out items and calling out who we thought it might be good for. We quickly filled up our laundry baskets and headed to the dressing rooms. Sarah, as usual, was the most successful and came away with almost a whole new wardrobe, including the "piece de resistance"...a pair of black, snake-skin, high-

heeled, shin-high boots! We then headed on to Salvation Army to discover that it was "Bag Day"!

This meant that you could fill a garbage bag for $5! The tricky part was that we had less than 10 minutes to do it because they were closing! Well, we took this as a challenge and grabbed anything that we thought might be good for anyone we knew! This included some choice finds like this pink hippo sweater jacket, a fur lined hat (CC was looking for a russian model hat, but I don't think this is what she had in mind!), and some black snake-skin pants!

After dinner, it was off to the theatre to meet up with Marcel and Tom to start our tech. Those two are so good that we were even able to start an hour earlier that we thought. (There boys, how do you like those accolades!)

Today, we're about to begin a very long day, which starts with teching the rest of the show, doing a dress rehearsal, then the show and then driving back to Hali tonight. Ahh, life on the road...

Till next time (which will be Moncton in a few weeks),
