Update on Princess

Day 1
After arriving at noon, met with property manager, got keys. When to check out the locale. Got lost three times, fell and scraped her hands, bruised her body. Dirty and stunk so bad she had to buy a new top. Not a happy camper, says the place is spread out like Mississauga or Scarborough. Ewwwwww!

Day 2
Went to the university to get transit pass, still trying to get a fix on the place. Hates it, says the place is a nightmare, highways and biways. Yuck!

Day3
Calls me from Walmart, says she has been waiting for an hour for a taxi. She will call me tomorrow.

Day 4 (Saturday)
Says she had a good day yesterday. Went to orientation a.m., lunch afterwards. Veggie burgers all gone, wants to leave, fellow students convince her to stay. Have a salad they say. Stays and mingles , everyone deciding to go to a pub that evening. She says she doesn't think so, again they say come on. After Walmart, (1 1/2 hours later) she gets home and goes to the pub. Thank Gawd!! She really enjoys herself, getting to meet the others in her program, apparently the university has allowed for more Ph D students this year than ever before.

Found a district that is called Kensington, sorta' like Queen St W. Happy about that!
All in all, getting used to a new city is overwhelming, hopefully it will be okay soon.

Oh yeah, about the taxi service, her taxi driver told her most of the taxi drivers live in the Northeast, (she lives in the Northwest) and they all go home for dinner at 5:00 P.M. That was when she was calling. Go figure that one out???
