HI Clem, and welcome to Canada. With a 4 month old and 2 year old I'm surprised you would actually be looking for something to do,;-). I kinda still remember that, and mine were about that age when we first moved to the Edmonton area, (we lived in the country about 40 minutes North of the city), they kept us busy enough. Anyway, it can be a tough time of year to meet folks, mainly because they are too focused on getting ready for the holidays or just being out in the cold as little as possible. Like Karrie said, getting out for a walk with your kids and meeting other parents doing the same seems to work, (my kids are grown so we use the dog for that now :lol
. I don't know what the weather is like there right now, but usually the first warmish day after a cold snap is when folks come out like bees out of the hive.
We've moved around a lot too, it is difficult, expecially at this time of year, and your friends and family are far away, (and how's this for irony, I still live in Canada and I can get to London faster from here than I can to Edmonton). You haven't said yet if you are mobile or house bound. Being without a vehicle is really limiting. But hey, there's always this site, it can eat up your free time pretty quick. Let us know how you're doing. Cheers.:canada:
