Thanks for all the advise ladies.
Eden, very nice pictures!. Sadly we never made it down, our passports need renewing and we are now awaiting the new ones. We had less than 6 months left before the passports expired, and I know if you travel internationally with a passport that expires within 6 months you can end up with issues at borders. Not sure how that works with USA and Canadian border, but didn't want to find out. I never thought to check the passport expiry date, but once I did notice I decided to check my drivers license and yep needed to renew that as well. $425.00 for 2 passports (10 yr) and one (5 yr) drivers license. Now I'm checking the expiry date on everything I can think of...
Sigh.....hopefully I get down there next year, I've been trying for 4-5 yrs now and always something comes up preventing the trip.
