Finally.......

......... one of the reasons I've been reading lots of books, like the one in the previous post, is we have been working towards something for the last year, and wonder how our eldest will cope/behave when we go to .........

........ Australia in April!!!!!!

Yay!

We booked our tickets online tonight, eeeeek, talk about a harrowing ordeal, especially having to log out, go fix something with our Airpoints, log back in, and re enter all the info...... and then have to do it again, aaaargh. Anyway, it's done, just to book accomodation tomorrow with Travel Agent SIL, and then wait.

It was supposed to be Jon and I, going to Fiji, for our 10th Wedding Anniversary, (which incidentally was April last year, not this year) which I am still sad about missing, but am also looking forward to a great family trip.

We were very fortunate to have accumulated enough airpoints to pay for our flights, so that was a huge saving to start with, just have to really restrict what we spend our money on in the next few months.

I'm so excited!!!!!!!!

Yay, that's awesome! Something to look forward to ... and not really that long to wait! Woohoo!!!

Funny you were planning Fiji for your 10th anniversary ... that's exactly what Rob and I are planning! Our 10th is not until 2009 so I have a loooooong wait (even though we've saved enough moola already, LOL).

We definitely want to do the Gold Coast as a family when our boys are older (in about 4 years' time I guess) so will be keen to hear about your experiences!
