So here we are... today is foursday and we have been delayed in Lethbridge since onesday! We got to the border late onesday night and they took us into a locked cage to ask us questions. We were all silently freaking out wondering who was in trouble and why. It ended up that Sarah brought her passport she reported lost or stolen years ago. Once they figured out it was her own passport they were going to let her into the States anyways but we decided to drive back to Lethbridge so we could get a valid passport for her so we could go further than the States. We parked and slept in a Wal-Mart parking lot which was SO cold because of the insane wind here and the van is super drafty! The next night (twosday!) we parked our van in the backyard of a friend of Sarah's (thanks Trisha!)which blocked us from the wind and was much warmer. On threesday we met up with an wonderful couchsurfer Holly at the Penny coffee shop for a nice chat and coffee. Put Sarah on a Greyhound back to Calgs to deal with getting a valid passport. She's going to apply and come back to us tonight and we'll drive to Salt Lake City overnight. We'll get down to Arizona where we'll wait until her mom gets her passport and she will mail it to where we are. Might as well pass the time somewhere warm! Didn't get very far.... and we're trudging through much adversity to go on this trip, but nothing good comes for free. The beach and Callisto Crew are destined to be together!!

Hello, 
Welcome to our blog. Come along and join us on our trip driving from Calgary, Alberta down through the States and Mexico to Belize, through to Costa Rica. We’re in  a brown and beige ‘77 Dodge Tradesman 200 Funcraft aka “Marley”. 
We are currently in limbo. Still in Calgary trying to get the van running well. It's now about a week and a half since we were supposed to be outta here, but it's good to get these adjustments done here instead of in the middle of nowhere! Thanks to all our friends who have braved the cold to help us work on him. We just have to BELIEVE! Send some good vibes to him, cause the ol' boy needs it! 


Callisto was a nymph (or, according to some sources, the daughter of Lycaon) who was associated with the goddess of the hunt, Artemis. Zeus placed Callisto in the sky as the constellation Ursa Major, or “great bear,” and then took Arcas and placed him in the sky near his mother as Ursa Minor, the “little bear.”
Callisto is a moon of Jupiter. It’s the third largest moon in the solar system.
