80 Shoes

Shea and I headed over to Pollard where the shoes were being stored. We grabbed many, many boxes - as many as we could fit in my car. As it turned out we've packed three big suitcases with shoes - Each extra suitcase is $30 so we really did feel we needed to show some restraint. Especially because we don't know if they'll make it through.

Our back up back up plan is if all the shoes are taken - hopefully just held for us until we leave the country - we will find some kind of discount house in Lima and buy some shoes. That is worst case scenario....well, one step worse would be prison.

Allan, Shea and I are going to be the "mules". We're actually not even sure that US customs will allow us to bring the shoes in. So that will be our first test.

Shea and I, Zak, Bree, Tony and Ben will leave tomorrow morning at 5:15 am. We'll first deal with US customs in Toronto....which is experiencing a blizzard by the way.

Allan will follow on Friday. By then we'll at least know if he should bring his shoe bag along. (from the US customs perspective.) FUN FUN FUN!!!!!

Hmmm - on the good news front I did avoid a major collision today when a guy in a green truck pulled out right in front of me. I pat myself on the back a bit because I do kinda have a few things on my mind - I'm pleased I had the presence of mind to avoid him - I did have to go up on the curb to miss crashing into him.
