Yeah I was looking so that hubby can travel with taca or copa... but it's SOOOOO complicated.. he'll need to get to San Salvador, then fly up to toronto, then catch another flight to montreal OR take the bus (it's about 6 to 8 hours).. then from montreal to my town is about 1h30/2h driving... damnit!

So he's gonna try to have a transit visa for the US, then just catch a flight from Managua to Montreal. I think he'll be here around june 2nd. Yeah!!!!!! He'll noticed our baby change a lot, and I'll finaly have time to take a nap ajajajaj! :)

So I guess he'll be traveling with american airlines or something like that.

im actually a bit concerned for you cause they only give u 90 days to send correspondence, so if they have something there for u from novembber and u have to send something back you may have missed the deadline. :s
