Day Twenty Six - Leaving 'Home' - All good things must come to an end

Today has been a pretty sad day for me personally... I was at risk of bursting into tears throughout the morning. Ress, Anthony and Rachael came down to us at Spring Creek, and we took them down the valley trail to ride their 'aussie pluggers' down the hill. Very hilarious to watch. We walked them back to the bus stop and said our goodbyes as we won't see Ress and Ant for another 6 months as they are off to travel Europe. We went home and packed our bags and hung out with Leigh (who was home for the day feeling very unwell). Called a cab and said our goodbyes to Leigh is when the waterworks started for me - and I had a lot of trouble controlling it for the rest of the afternoon up in the village. We went to the Longhorn Saloon for our last 'Poutine' and other Canadian food. Walked the village for souviners for the family - and then at 3.15pm we went back to Cory's work and grabbed our bags and said goodbye to Cory. The waterworks were bad at this point - boarding the bus down to Vancouver, in the dark, I was a bit teary the whole way down to the city. We are now sitting at the Vancouver airport - which marks pretty much the end of our holiday - about to board a 15 hour flight back to Sydney and then the 1.5 hour flight to Brisbane.
