So today I had to part with my hard earned cash, what a sad day. The dollar was going for R7.55! Plus the bank adds a fee for changing my money for me, as if I wasn't parting with enough money as it is. I paid over 11 000ZAR for only 1500USD. It breaks my heart!! But I have to admit, it's nice seeing those dollars in my bag.
I also spent the day getting little gifts for people I'll be seeing and staying with in the US. Just a few more of those gifts to get, but I've ticked off most of that part of my list.
Also got myself a handbag which is different from my old one in two important ways:
1) It's bigger, so I'll be able to fit some shopping bags into it
2) It has a zipper at the top to close it, safer for traveling I think.
Having a little dinner get together on Wednesday night, the night before take off. I think an overseas trip is a good excuse to get together with friends you haven't seen in a while! So I also made a few calls today confirming time and venue for Wednesday night's get together.
Getting more and more excited, only 3 more sleeps to go!!
