With less than three weeks until we depart for Istanbul and 8 days to work...we have sooooo much to do!

Weve not even started packing the flat up yet, and we have tons of stuff that we are going to try and sell at a boot fair to make some extra cash!

Looking back, even though we are starting to panic a little, 2 weeks ago we had done almost nothing! Today I sit here at my PC, knowing that we have our brand spanking new backpacks sitting in the room next door...crying out to be packed and taken around the world! We have our flights to Istanbul booked...the tickets are in front of me, our passports came back from the Syrian Embassy in London yesterday...stamped with our visa to allow us entry to their country, last night we had our yellow fever and meningitis jabs, we have already had the first 2 doses of Hep B and Rabies and by this time next weeks our jabs will be completed!

I am sitting here today waiting for the courier to deliver our tickets for our flight from Johannesburg back to London in January...we booked them through a really helpful travel agent in Cape Town and she put them on a courier...due today!!

With all that in mind I guess we actually are almost sorted!!

We are just soooooo excited that its difficult to concentrate on anything else!

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!

18 DAYS TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
