judging by the posts awhile back, about the Royal Wedding, i think there are some Royal Watchers here on the board - i just wanted to share some news - my 16 year old, Kyle, has been chosen to go to Ottawa for Canada Day, to help prepare a meal at the Governor General's Residence, for William and Kate while they're visiting Canada! - he's very excited! - and i'm excited for him! -

OBSESSED??? because I set alarm for 4:30 am, made pot of tea (sounds so English) and emailed Karen, as she did me, with every detail we were observing - never obsessed!!

Oh cool, how exciting! I was kidding with David that we should go up to Ottawa to see them--he thinks I'm crazy. Our cottage is only a half hour from downtown Ottawa, but at the moment we don't plan to be up there (hate travelling on national holidays, and we just got back from a glorious week there, so want to spend some time in Toronto.) But it's tempting!

this Royal visit is themed around "youth" - 22 students from across the country were chosen to take part in this event - Kyle received his official chef uniform yesterday and began his first experience with interviewers - he's informed me he doesn't like that part - we actually had to get his security clearance started about 2 months ago - so exciting for him! -

That is so exciting, Janis. Do keep us posted on Kyle's adventures. There were a few of us Royal Wedding Watchers here on William and Kate's day. We had a lot of fun!
Karen & Joanna, I'd love to see pictures of you two in your pjs and fascinators!!
