Default Swapped my house for money!

Hi all,

My house sale completed yesterday, the settlement cheque arrived in the post today!

I'm at my mum's now until 7 September when we fly out to Adelaide via New York/Las Vegas/Hawaii/Sydney (mum's coming with me for the trip), arriving on 21 Sept.

All very real now and yet still feels like a dream!

All the best to everyone, whatever stage you're at - it will happen for you too...

Elaine,,

If you don't mind me asking who did you book your flights with. I have been asking for quotes via USA without much response.

Hi Walla,

I booked with Travelbag in the end as they came up with the cheapest quote but also had a good quote from Redfern Travel who arranged my 3 previous trips to Aus, via Singapore.

www.redfern-travel.com or call them on 01274 733551.

I set out the stopovers and dates I wanted and asked them to come up with flight details and costs.

Hope this helps - pm me if you want to know any more.
