Ellen has visa! Finally we can write
more about our adventure. We are off to Australia via a 3 month
backpacking adventure through South America.
Ellen has been waiting 9 months for the
Australian consulate here in London to issue her visa, and finally it came
through last week.
It’s been a long slog, the application
itself took over 2 months to put together and in the time between first
enquiring in January 2012 and applying in September 2012 the waiting time went
from 2 months to 9 months!
So we will be in Australia just in time for Christmas with Angel's family - his first in over 10 years.
We now have loads to do – Sell the flat, the car, the Vespa, some crap we don’t want to
take with us, book the shipping of our stuff and the transportation of our
beloved cat Bob to Angel’s parents (she has gone through all the medical
tests/injections she needs…poor thing).
