Another crazy day of sorting toiletries, washing clothes, filling out luggage labels and so on! My Travellers Cheques have arrived and it's starting to look like we're really going somewhere!

The best bit of today though was the time Caesar and I spent at the vets office late this afternoon. Anna gave him a full once over and was more than happy to certify Caesar fit to travel and complete his passport accordingly and issue a certificate of fitness for him. I took the opportunity to stock up on one or two medicinal creams for Caesar "just in case" he gets any hotspots or conjunctivitis, and to buy more Advantix and Milbemax, so that I have the products with me when he needs to have them to prepare to return to the UK in three weeks time.

Oh and I also had to work out how many doggie do do bags for three weeks use .... waaaaaah, it was lots!
