Here we go, counting down; time is on the wire.
Our "to do" list shortens. Laundry is done & house is clean. Our bags are almost packed. Cars have been fixed up (oil changed, etc). Gone through a lot of our back up food so we can start with fresh stuff when we get back. And our friends that are house sitting have been prepped with all the info.
We will be making a drive down to Southern Cali to fly out of LAX. We will have a lay over in Hawaii. When we land in Auckland, we will be renting a car. **woot! woot! for driving in the opposite side of the car, on the opposite side of the road**
