Smile Flights booked - we're really going

Mal had his flight comfirmation through yesterday. He fly's from Heathrow Sat 1st Sept. As I'm working out my notice I don't fly until 8th from Heathrow. Looked at our local Airport in Cardiff but it wouldn't get me in to Toronto until 11:05, then would have had to wait until 7:30am for connecting flight to Saskatoon. Never mind it's done now and we're on our way. hee hee

Hi there,
It's amazing isn't it you talk, walk and breathe about for so long it almost seems like a fantasy but when things actually come to a conclusion and you make those flight booking is must suddenly become so exciting and nerve wracking.

We are going for our meds on the 4th September and I am getting butterflies already. I know we are making the right decision but all of a sudden it seem real (if that makes sense) and after doing nothing for nearly three years we are now really busy trying to get quotes for a variety of different things etc.

Having a 3yr old and a new baby is sometimes does seem a bit over-whelming.

But well done and good luck with your new life and may god bless you in all you do.

Hi

Know the feeling about it really happening - we have the removal people in our house today! Definately nerve wracking, but even more exciting!

We've had plenty of time to stew on this (had visas since Feb 06), and have had plenty of time to worry, but now feel we're doing the right and are just really looking forward to going. So we're off to Fredericton on Sep 17.

Good luck in Sasksatoon!

Hey Lorna & Mal,
Best of luck out there and it will be worth the wait i'm sure. You will miss all this lovely weather we get in Wales you know. Never mind hot summers to look forward to and freezing winters, it's a sight better than rain every week here thou, always a trade off somewhere.
All the best,
LOAFY...

Isn't there a time limit on those things?

That would have been a bit disappointing arriving at customs, what with having already bought a house and shipped our goods! ...

There is Noooooo way I could possibly wait that long once I had the visa's. Not that I'm impatient or anything
