Flight booked!

This time in 3 months I will be in Florida! Hard to believe. It still feels like so far away.

I have finally booked my flight! I'll be flying from Heathrow on October 16th with Bryony, yay! I've never flown with Delta before but it was by far the cheapest flight, so I went for it. Hopefully some more of our arrival group (which is now 7 people strong!) will join us on that flight.

Next thing on the list is insurance, but I'll deal with that when I return from my Midwest road trip ...

99 days to go!

It's now 99 days until my start date, and I'm still yet to book my flights or sort out insurance. Somehow October still seems like a long way away, but it's only 3 months now, eek!

One of the girls that I met before the group interviews and had meals with after both the group and F2F interviews, Bryony, has just been given the same start date as me, which I'm really excited about! There's now 5 of us all going out on October 16th so hopefully we'll be able to sort something out so we can all fly together.

Things are all a bit all over the place in my life at the moment - I'm living at the house of one of my work friends so I can stay at work for an extra 3 months before I leave (the tenancy on my flat down here ran out yesterday and since I'm obviously moving to Florida it didn't make sense to move somewhere else for such a short time).
I'm going on holiday with my parents next week, to Colorado and beyond, so I'm pretty excited about that!

I'm starting to mentally plan what clothes and shoes I'll be taking with me, because that's obviously the most important thing.

I'll hopefully get some things sorted in the next month or so and keep you updated!
