How I wish I had time for a leisurely walk along the canal this morning, but my agenda did not permit this diversion. I was heading to Cornwall for a Red Cross debriefing on the Haiti mission. I am looking forward to seeing some familiar faces and some new ones.
The get-together was taking place at NAV Canada, which is a navigation training centre. I think the architect of the building took that to heart when he designed the building, what with the warren of tiny rooms and many-angled corridors.
This reunion was one filled with strong emotions: an overwhelming sense of loss that came with witnessing destruction firsthand, a sense of pride in our accomplishments, and a sense of fellowship in a common experience.
