Flights are booked...

We pushed the flights out a week as our original departure date fell over Memorial weekend so options were limited and really expensive.  We are now flying out on 4th June 2010 on Delta Airlines via Atlanta.  Never booked one way tickets before and hopefully Homeland Security do not think there is anything dodgy about us!

Landing in Ireland at 8:30am on the 5th and then straight to Kinsale.


Housing options are now looking up as we have a good local agent who is finding us all sorts of great options. 


The other big news is that we have chosen a relocation company.  We like Mayflower the best and they came in the cheapest with a guaranteed price.  All the others were "estimates only" and none as professional as Mayflower.   


so it is now...


81 days until we depart


US$1.00 = EUR0.73


Houses sold in Dallas = Zero


House rented in Kinsale = Zero (but starting to look good)


Mayflower estimate on the weight of all our stuff = 11,000lbs


Weather in Dallas = Stunning!


Weather in Kinsale = High 10°C | Low 3°C and Mostly Cloudy
(with a chance of meatballs!)


Thanks all for now.
