Projected Travel Date

We have received a projected travel date of March 12, 2010 from our travel advisor. It seems like I have been going non-stop since we received our referral. I have been checking and rechecking our paperwork. We had passport photos taken. We have requested our visas for our passports and requested a home study update. We have discussed luggage and changed our minds several times. Oh what to do!

Next week we will check and double check our packing lists so we can make a final decision on what we are going to take. "Travel Light" that is my motto.

I will post more updates as I get them.
