The last week in Germany

G'Day Mates,

yeah I really should get used to that now that we are getting closer to the big moving date.
A lot has happened since I blogged the last time.
We were not really successful in selling all the furniture, so unfortunately we have to trash it all on Monday. :( I was even trying to donate it to charity, but even them just wanted to make money with it and were just interested in it when they could pick it up on their own and charging me 200EUR for it. I am really asking myself what is wrong with these people these days, being all about the money and the money only?
Frankie also had his blood tests which was even a bigger drama. He failed one of them in the first run and that was almost the end for Oz. When we were thinking about what to do in case he fails the second one we decided that there would be NO WAY we would leave him behind. He is a family member.
So we started looking for solutions, just in case.
The problem was that Peabo's Tourist visa is expiring on the 15th and he would definitely have to leave the country. That would have meant Long Distance Relationship again. :(
Since I would have not been able to get a J1 Visa for the US before January and unfortunately the work and holiday visa in Canada are all gone for this year already, we would have seen us again in January in Canada. But I guess this time Murphy wasn't really in the mood to crew us. :) Frankie passed the second test. YAY!! We had to fill out 12 pages of import permit, reconfirm the flight and his quarantine and he is flying out on Tuesday. :)
I also had my last day at work on the 30th. Next morning I went to the unemployed office and everybody was very nice. It was my first time ever dealing with them and I was a lil freaked cause of the stories you hear about them being rude and mean. BUT they are the total opposite and when they heard my story about leaving they were even more impressed and couldn't stop asking questions about Australia. :)
After that the last week all we did was packing, packing, packing, throwing stuff away and more packing. Until this morning, I successfully deregistered myself and got an international drivers license. :D
I think this might be the last post from Germany.
We'll be moving to Frankfurt on Monday and spend some more time with my Family and Friends over there and finally heading out on Friday.
So next time you read from me, it'll be from the wonderful Sydney, Australia.

Cheers Mates!
